Google Release new Android version, named Android P

Android P

Google called its latest operating system a “vision of AI at the core of the operating system.” Here’s a few of the new features it previewed for the OS, which will likely launch later in the year:
A simpler design. The Google version of Android is getting simpler. Android P replaces the three buttons at the bottom of the operating system with a single home button. From there,the technology company approaches its product development, and access shortcuts to open the five apps the operating system thinks you’re you’re most likely to want. A second swipe up will reveal all the apps on your phone. Swiping sideways on the home button will allow you to scroll through all the apps you have open.
Shush. Android P will feature a new “shush” mode, where it’ll turn off all notifications, pings, buzzes, and sounds if you rest it on its screen, with the aim of making users more present in meetings and other times they shouldn’t be checking their phones. Calls from important people (like family members) will still go through.
Wind down. This new mode will turn the phone’s screen to greyscale past a certain hour, which Google says helps to dissuade you from continuing to use your phone in bed. But you’ll always be able to turn the feature off if you don’t feel like sleeping right now.
Get off your phone. The app utility dashboard in Android will show you how often you’re using certain apps. In the past, this has just been to show y0u how much battery they’re consuming, but now it’ll help you stay mindful of how often you’re staring at your phone. You’ll also be able to set apps to remind you to take breaks from using them.
Rotation control. You’ll now be able to control when your phone rotates its screen: Instead of rotation lock being an on-or-off switch, the operating system will show a little icon when you turn your phone, allowing you to toggle rotation lock if you want it off for this specific screen, but on in general.
