Mobile development is continuing to be explored, especially for Android. The launch of Android’s newest version always become the most awaited event for its customers each year, no wonder Android has become the most popular mobile OS. After the last version of Android, Android Lollipop (5.0), people encourage to see that we can expect more from Android. Google I/O 2015 has now been scheduled in and they have given us a lots of hint of what’s coming up. One of those is the development of Android M. Wondering what is it and what can it do for you? Here is what we know so far about Android M.
- Improved Notifications
As there are so many complains about irrelevant notifications, so it seems that the next step of Google is reviewing notifications and to unify them across all platforms. This is intended for creating comfortable eye-seen notification, which only appears when someone needs them, but it is still continuing to be developed as this is not an exact science. For example, a notification seen on your PC would not appear on your phone or tablet. It means that the customer really can expect some changes to the way notifications are both displayed and interacted with on Android M.
- Smart Home
Even though, Android 5.0 Lollipop already has a good focus on creating and consolidating everything that Android has brought us these days, but in the future, adding application such as smart home apps will become one of important features of Android, by providing complete control between your connected devices at home and in the office via Nest or other third-party makers.
- Android Auto
As it is said in a report from Reuters, Android M will have a significant focus on Google’s Android Auto Software, and it is said that there is a chance that android M may be suitable to be built into upcoming cars as standard without the need to plug in a phone. Moreover, the car-optimized version of Android M will allow you to control all of your vehicles entertainment, messaging and GPS in a standalone format.
