Google released the first Android N
developer preview on March 9, two full months earlier than expected. The
Android N preview went live for the Nexus 6P, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6, Nexus 9
(Wi-Fi and LTE), Nexus Player and Pixel C on the Android Developers site.
A more polished version of the Android N developer preview will still
be shown off during Sundar Pichai’s keynote lecture on day one of the
conference but developers and enthusiasts will have a couple months’
head start on getting to know N. Google has released a early preview
of the next version of its mobile operating system – Android N – with
split-screen multitasking, increased battery life and better
notifications. Head of Android Hiroshi Lockheimer, said:
“It’s earlier than ever, it’s easier to try and we’re expanding the
ways for you to give us feedback. We want to hear from you and iterate
on the platform with you – that’s what makes Android stronger.” Compatible apps (developers will need to add support for split screen
mode individually) can be opened up side-by-side in Android N and
resized. Developers will be able to set a minimum size for their app
windows, but you’ll have a very similar multitasking experience to what
you already find on many OEM devices. There’s also a new
picture-in-picture mode that works just like minimized video in YouTube. Will "N" make Android OS devices more competitive with IoS and Windows 10 based electronics? Share your comments with the Smartphone and Tablet Zone:
