Android 7.0 Nougat update starts rolling out worldwide but only the Nexus devices to get it first.
The new update brings several additional features to Android, from tweaks to the interface that will change how you use your phone, to changes that will improve battery life and performance.
According to the official Android blog, there are over 250 major features in Android Nougat.
Here are 5 features we're most excited about.
More personal
Providing more ways to customize your phone to fit your personality is kind of a big deal, and Android has been leading the way since day one (Homescreen widgets, anyone?). With Android Nougat, you'll have even more ways to make your phone your own, including:
Expanded emoji: There are now over 1,500 different emoji built into Android, including 72 new ones, so go ahead: express yourself.
Quick Settings controls: Quick Settings gives you easy access to things like bluetooth, WiFi and the all-important flashlight. With Android Nougat, you can actually control what tiles go where, and move 'em around to fit your needs.
Multi-locale support: Apps can tailor their content based on your locale settings. So if you speak multiple languages, then search engines can show results in each of those languages.
More productive
Whether you're responding to work emails or making plans with friends, Android Nougat helps you multitask with ease with new features like Multi-window, Direct reply, and Quick switch.
Multi-window: Run two apps side-by-side. The windows are resizable, too, by simply dragging the divider.
Direct Reply: Reply directly to notifications without having to open any app.
Quick Switch: Switch between your two most recently used apps by simply double tapping the Overview button.
More battery power
Starting with the release of Android Marshmallow last year, they have been making the battery smarter. That's why they made the Doze feature even dozier with Android Nougat.
More immersive
Android Nougat is designed with immersive experiences in mind-including support for VulkanTM (an advanced 3D rendering API) and Daydream (Google's platform for mobile virtual reality).
And most importantly,
It's More Secure!
For new devices coming this fall, they've also added new features like Seamless updates, File-based encryption and and Direct Boot.
