so the traditional thing would Android versions these days is that you only get a few cosmetic changes up at the top and most of the interesting stuff is happening under the hood and here's what's changed with the new Android oh so the first change you might notice is the new notification Docs this is Google adopting something that Apple already does with a iPhone a lot when you have a notification or any alert that an app wants to send you you have a dot one of the neat things is that the color automatically matches the icon itself so here with the Switzer thing and you can just wipe it away so you don't have to go to notification store anymore you can swipe it away from there jump it in to the email app here this is neat Google shoulders a demo where when you have something like an address machine-learning integrated into Google's apps is going to pick that up and immediately help you select the full address rather than just a piece of text it's not happening in this demo or in this device itself but when Google shoulder on stage is really neat so you just double tap and it automatically knows the entire dress and selects it for you you can just copy and paste it as well so it's probably one of the most requested features that Google just added and row and it's picture and picture so when you're watching a YouTube video if you just go to home the video carries on playing and you can continue using the phone as normal and you can just reposition it wherever you like and just carry on watching as you're going now the issue with this is that it's unsupported on YouTube bread so if you don't have a YouTube red subscription doesn't work for you so you only have a youtube bread and Google geo which is their video chat client other third-party supports is expected to come in the future Google doesn't have anything to say at publish another neat thing that Google has done is autofill so if you have your login details on twitter.com with a Chrome browser it remembers them for apps that you have on Android so as in this case it picked up the information from pro and involves you inter Switzer into the Twitter app via your login and your password from from the web browser besides that the notifications tray has only really changed cosmetically the little edit icon and the Settings icon we move down to the bottom rather than up at the top but still it's mostly the same thing the settings menu is actually the thing that has changed quite a bit a few things being reorganized but also when you go into a particular submenu most things have been relegated to this Advanced section so you only really get the primary settings and then you jump to the Advanced section to get the full set Gugu is also kicking in some suggestions for when you're setting up the phone I'm guessing the number of suggestions would reduce once you start doing things but broadly speaking is still Android the way so it's been so things you probably won't see when you first boot up Android out but you would definitely appreciate something that Google names vitals and these are stability security battery life and just general speed of the interface the first thing is actually you will notice this it's a boot up time with Android oh the Google pixel boots up twice as fast and is super impressive you immediately get a sense of the improvement of speed there in terms of stability I can't say anything about it now we see better software so that will be later this year when Android all comes out just as everything else here in Google i/o is later this year and it's a security goo Goo's introducing a thing called Google Play protect which isn't really a new thing who has been scanning for malicious apps on Android for a long time but Google Play protect is essentially branding it and just making it more visible to people and just essentially reminding them to make use of that feature and just to know that it's there as to better life Google's doing a couple of things to control background resource issues by apps so first of all is location when an app is in the background and also location Android oh one activated GPS and the actual device sensors it would just give it the last-known location that the phone had and when the app is in the foreground that's when you will use the location hardware on the phone so that will save in better life you lose spooning these things wise limits it's doing the same with other resources that an app might use in the background just making sure that the better life is as long as possible overall is the same old Android but a whole bunch of under the hood optimizations which is or we can really ask for so traditional thing yeah the traditional thing with Android these days is only the common thing would every Android version each year is there is only a few cosmetic time why can AskMe
