Google released the following preview with new features ⊂ · ⊃ CURVED.de

The new preview version of Android P is here: Google has released the third beta for the next major update of its operating system. The beta 3 brings a number of new products that are primarily intended to improve navigation.

According to Google, the third beta version of the final version of Android P is already very close, as reported 9to5Google. As a result, many features already exist, although they are not always fully functional. A handy feature: you can select manually in the future, if you want a light or dark theme for the background. Alternatively, set to "Automatic" so that Android aligns the theme on the screen background you choose.

New Buttons and Displays

It is also convenient to adjust the ringer volume in Quick Settings with the help of a slider. You can also open the Watch application by tapping the clock in the Quick Settings menu. If you have gestures activated and typed, there is now a key to toggle the keyboard to the right. In the same place you will find a rotation button in the future.

Still in terms of design, Android P makes some changes from its predecessor. What's catchy in the third beta: The "back" button at the bottom of the screen now has the shape of an angle. In Android Oreo, the button always uses a triangle as the icon. Also new: when the power saving mode is enabled, the battery icon displays a relatively subtle border in orange.

What Android P features still has, you can explore in Marcos tour through the features of the update. So that from the outset, many smartphones and tablets get the update quickly, Google apparently collaborates with the chip maker Qualcomm.
