if you guys are running android marshmallow you're probably reading articles about phones getting nougat and I'm about to make you feel a little bit worse for yourselves and I apologize but today Google took the wraps off Android Oh at least a very first Developer Preview came out so we installed Android Oh on our pixel and you can install this on a lot of different devices do it on the Android emulator 5 X 6 P player any of the pixel devices so it's regular pixel pixel XL or pixel C but again do with caution this is meant just for developers it will be a consumer version though plan later in the year 1 a huge area of improvement you can expect from Android o is battery life Google's giving additional limits on what apps can do in the background which is similar to what Apple does with iOS so gone are the days of background processes running what this going to mean for the end user is just much better app management and battery life notification channel is also new here users can be able to block or change any vacation behavior on each channel individually how about some pip some picture and picture display is now available on phones and tablets but you keep watching a video while you use another app so just an improved picture in picture we also have adaptive icons now system icons can add out whatever environment they're in whether on a Samsung or LG device so depending on the launch we've got going on the adaptive icon also a lot of ella purrs integrates their app icons with the devices existing UI you now have wide gamut color for apps apps and take advantage of new devices it'll have wide color gamut for color capable displays so just brilliant better colors googles are working with different partners trying to improve experiences so for better audio they work directly with Sony so you should get way better audio when you're just plugging in your headphones so I'm sure this is just the tip of the iceberg what Google is going to announce for Android oh what features are eventually going to come baked in - oh I'm going to call an Oreo whatever it eventually comes out I'm excited hopefully you guys are too many features you guys most excited about let me know in the comments down below and we can talk about them the next time John Ranger from TechnoBuffalo
