While it\u2019s early days, the preview still gives us a good idea of what to expect, like security changes, new gesture navigation updates, better pictures, and faster, cleaner notifications. The preview also suggests that Android will make a big play for other formfactors, like tablets, foldables, and even TVs.<\/p>\n<p>To be clear, this is a developer preview and not something the average person would install on their everyday phone. And it\u2019s far from final, Android will take feedback, make changes, and possibly even add more features or remove some of the features in this test. But developer previews are still a good look into what\u2019s coming.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gesture_Navigation_Audio_Picture_and_Notification_Improvements\"><\/span>Gesture Navigation, Audio, Picture, and Notification Improvements<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>For the average user, the big items are centered around gesture navigation, audio, pictures, and notifications. Android 12 promises to simplify immersive mode so gesture navigation is easier and less likely to to trigger by accident. The Android\u00a0 team says it will work better in full-screen <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>s, like <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>s and videos, but it\u2019s pretty light on details.<\/p>\n<p>Android 12 will come with a new Haptic-coupled audio effect. Developers can use that to customize vibration strength and frequencies derived from an audio session. The idea is to give a better \u201crumble\u201d feedback in games, like simulating rough terrain in a racing game. Or a developer could use custom vibrations alongside custom ringtones to identify different callers.<\/p>\n<p>Audio itself should see an improvement, thanks to support for\u00a0MPEG-H playback, multi-channel audio (spacial audio) and optimized\u00a0audio mixers, resamplers and effects.<\/p>\n<p>Pictures should look better in Android 12, though not because of camera hardware. If you have the best camera hardware available, the pictures you get still won\u2019t look good if they\u2019re overly compressed and filled with noise. Android 12 will introduce support for the AV1 Image File Format (AVIF). AVIF is a container format for images much like JPEG. But y relying on <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/AV1\">AV1 encoding<\/a>, you get a much better image quality than JPEG can produce.<\/p>\n<p>Notifications will get some much needed improvements, particularly around speed. Android 12 promises to launch apps faster from a notification by blocking developers from using \u201ctrampolines\u201d to launch activities. Trampolines work as an inter<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>ry broadcast receiver or service, and are much slower than triggering an Activity directly.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside speed, notifications will get an UI update. Android 12 promises a \u201cmodern look\u201d that should also be \u201ceasier to use.\u201d That includes changes to the drawer, controls, and the templates developers use. Previously fully custom notifications could take up the entire notification window, but that won\u2019t be the case anymore with Android 12. Instead developers will follow a standard template ensure a more consistent look across the board.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to new APs, Android 12 also makes it easier to paste media like images, videos, and other rich content from any source.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Android_Updates_through_Google_Play\"><\/span>Android Updates through Google Play<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Behind the scenes, more of Android will get its updates through Google Play instead of full system updates. That\u2019s ongoing process that\u2019s been underway for years, with each new version seeing more of Android getting its updates through Google Play, as individual components are pulled out from the OS. Android 12 adds an Android Runtime (ART) module, allowing Android to push\u00a0updates to the core runtime and libraries on devices.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"More_Devices_More_Formfactors\"><\/span>More Devices, More Formfactors<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Android 12 will see a big push for more devices and formfactors. The Android team called on developers to start optimizing apps for tablets, foldables, and TV. And beyond that, it also called for more foldbable-specific apps. Alongside everything else, Android 12 for Android TV hit preview today so developer scan start working on apps for the TV experience. That includes testing apps on the new Google TV experience that debuted with the latest Chromecast.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>As always, Android 12 also focuses on security and privacy through a lot of behind the scenes changes. Developers will need to adopt new standards and methods, and they\u2019ll need to start testing apps with the new security features in place.<\/p>\n<p>If you aren\u2019t an experienced developer, you likely shouldn\u2019t download the Android 12 preview today. But if you are and you have a Pixel head to the Android Developers site to learn more.<\/p>\n<p><small>Source: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/android-developers.googleblog.com\/\">Android Developers<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>setTimeout(function(){!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,document,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');fbq('init','1137093656460433');fbq('track','PageView');},3000);<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
