Google released the first preliminary version of Android p

To date, only an insignificant share of Android Smartphones in the world operates on the basis of the latest version of Android (Android 8 Oreo), but Google is already preparing to release the following generation of its mobile OS. The other day, the developers released the first preliminary version of the system called Android P. The message about this was published on the Google blog .

Currently, the test version of Android P is available for Pixel, Pixel XL, Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL smartphones. The second preview, along with the beta version of Android P, will become available in May, and the release of the new generation of Android is scheduled for the 3rd quarter of this year, writes Ferra .

Judging by the description, the new version of Android will receive a lot of changes, including previously announced neckline support in the upper part of the displays of devices and the possibility of positioning in rooms using Wi-Fi RTT technology. In addition, the Android P users will have access to a quick response to the message in the notifications section and a more advanced auto -filling system when entering passwords, and devices operating on the new version of Android will be able to simultaneously receive a signal from several cameras.

Another worthy mention of the change is the ban on access to the camera, microphone and smartphone sensors for applications operating in the background. By tradition, the creators of Android P also promise users an improved energy consumption control system.

As emphasized in the company, this version of Android P is intended exclusively for developers, and ordinary users need to wait for the final version of the new OS.
