The Beta Android 11 is built on three key themes: People,
Controls, and Privacy.
After several
delays, Google
on Wednesday released the first Beta version of its upcoming Android 11 mobile
operating system for developers to test before official rollout that is
scheduled for later this year. The Beta version of Android 11 is based on
feedback that the technology giant received since February on the Android 11
developer previews. According to Google, the Beta Android 11 is built on three
key themes: People, Controls, and Privacy.
To make Android 11
people-centric, Google has added different layers of customisations in the OS
to help people converse on the phone while prioritising messages from across
the apps from contacts that matter. Besides, the Android 11 brings conversation
notifications that appear in a dedicated section at the top of the shade, with
a people-forward design and conversation specific actions, such as opening the
conversation as a bubble, creating a conversation shortcut on the home screen,
or setting a reminder. Google has also added ‘Voice Access’ functionality to
the OS for people who control their phone entirely by voice. The OS brings an
on-device visual cortex that understands screen content and context, and
generates labels and access points for accessibility commands.
The Android
11 Beta also brings new ways to control all of your smart devices from one
place. It has a dedicated space for device controls that can be accessed by
long pressing the power button. The power menu now includes device controls for
all connected devices in one place. Moreover, there is also a dedicated section
for media controls, which makes it quick and convenient for users to switch the
output device for their audio or video content.
