After several beta versions and several months of work the new version of Android arrived which was finally released last Tuesday. And as usual, Google has started the official deployment of the final version of Android 10 on your Pixel phone, including Pixel 1.
But the other smartphone users shouldn't expect long, andThe latest mobile phone operating system could reach other phones faster than before. In fact, Google has promised that it will "work with various partners to launch or upgrade devices to Android 10 this year".
Main news of Android 10
Android 10 brings a series of changes and that is one of the updates that caught the eye during the beta phase of the operating system it is the «Gesture navigation». This function allows you to navigate the phone with simple swipe gestures, which allow you to come and go, open the home screen and move from one task to another without problems.
Like the implementation on the iPhone X, gesture navigation has eliminated the need for a dedicated space for navigation buttons, thus providing more space for application content. However, the traditional three-button system will remain an option.
The devices will have full support for a dark theme, which will move the entire system user interface and all applications that generally support black text on a white background to white text on a black background.
Another update improves the operation and handling of notifications. In Android 10, the notification panel will use machine learning on devices to scan incoming messages and provide potentially useful action buttons directly on the notification panel.
One of the buttons is the button "Smart Responses", which should be familiar by now to anyone who has used Gmail. Another notification button is an "action", which will attempt to select incoming message URLs, phone numbers, addresses or tracking numbers to allow you to compress the data to the appropriate application without even opening it.
A more important new feature is the Mainline project. It will allow Google to release critical security patches directly to the Play Store rather than waiting for manufacturers and operators to implement them.
Users will receive these fixes as soon as they are availables, without having to wait for a full operating system update. "Project Mainline" support is required for all devices that ship with Android 10, which means that Google will make the device code available to device manufacturers.
Privacy will also be improved with updates to the Google Play system. Important security and privacy patches can now be pushed to phones from Google Play in the same way as app updates.
Google has a new section of Privacy in SettingsWhere users will find important controls like web and app activity and settings of ads in one place.
In terms of security, in addition to improved security updates, an improved biometric API and support for updated security protocols such as TLS 1.3 and WPA3, they will secure your data in the new version of Android.
Another feature, Family Link, also comes with all Android 9 or 10 devices, directly in the Digital Welfare settings.
It gives parents the ability to set their children's devices, daily screen time limits, bedtime, time limits on specific apps, and more. They can also review which apps kids install on their devices and how they use them, according to Google.
On the other hand, Google has facilitated access to application access permissions, in order to continue its commitment to privacy.
However, not all the features of Android 10 are fully available. Focus mode is only released in beta on Google Pixel.
Another is "Live Caption" which will allow users to get captions in real time for any audio or video file on their phone. There are several other features in Android 10 that are worth knowing about.
