a few days ago Google launched “Android Beta,” a program designed to provide developers (and curious) a first glimpse of what will be the next version of the mobile operating system most popular in the world. For now that means that people can try Android N, the newest (and not yet available) version of Android

Although there are still about six months for the final version of this system is accessible to the public, take a look at what Google is cooking is a good way to get a preview of what the future holds for Android.
So we checked in the program Android Beta and in minutes we had the new version of the operating system installed on a Nexus 6.
Warning : if you are a fan operating systems can register on the Android Beta program too. But we recommend using a secondary device, because a version of the system that is still in development can be harmful to a mobile. Download at your own risk.
Since arriving Material Design Android in the “Lollipop” version in 2014, each new update has included some winks and minor adjustments to the interface to make it cleaner and faster; but during these two years there has been a redesign. Last year reached some highly anticipated features such as support for fingerprint sensors and individual licenses in applications, but now with the release of Android N seems that Google is ready to add many more new features very attractive.
Two applications are always better than one
the first novelty that everyone will notice is the most obvious: the support split screen, something that devices like the tablet Pixel C of Google need for a long time. Apple introduced a similar feature in iOS 9 some months ago, and Samsung account can do for many years. However, the big difference with Apple is that Google has also added this feature to smartphones. In the case of “small” phones like the Nexus 5 or 5X you may feel strange, but Titans as the Nexus 6 (model in which we tested Android N) could be a very useful feature.
How it works:
If you click the button multitasking already appear to change traditional carousel application. However, you can set the animation of the carousel is slightly different in Android N.
when testing multitasking both apps by Google and other style of Twitter and Evernote had some flaws but overall its performance was quite decent. Android warns that not all applications work mode to split screen, which makes sense given that developers are just beginning to work with Android N.
To test mode split-screen only you have to open gmail, Hangout or any other application of Google and touch the button multitasking, followed by this you must hold down on the app you want and “drag” to the top of the screen and drop it there, then select a second application of the carousel and do the same but this time drop it at the bottom of the screen. Voila! Now you can use the bar that divides the two apps to adjust the size of each of its windows. This works with mobile both vertically and horizontally

You can also go to the settings menu system to activate a gesture slide your finger on the application up can activate the split screen mode.
Another pretty handy trick you can use in split-screen mode is to drag text from a window to the other. Unfortunately we could not capture it on video, but here’s proof that it exists.
Once you finish using the split screen mode simply press the Start button and so return to your home screen. Of course, you’ll notice that there is a symbol of “equal” in your notification bar, which also is now a different color; that means that the split screen mode is still active in the background. You can press the symbol “equal” to return to multiscreen mode, or keep it pressed to close completely.
Notifications stylish
The other major cosmetic change is in the notifications panel. Most of these now displays the most relevant information, and offer the possibility of responding directly from this screen. Cards (those who came for the first time in Google Now) have also been redesigned with a much cleaner look.
Here is a comparison with the notifications screen Android Marshmallow:
you will also notice that Google has imitated Samsung and they added direct to some adjustments to the top of the screen notifications accesses. And to go to the settings screen you can now edit many more options besides adding shortcuts to the settings you use most.
Apart from this setting screen which is reached from the notifications panel icons now show much more information. For example from the battery icon you will see what applications are battery be consuming more mobile, which will save you a few seconds to walk between different menus and options.
Long live darkness
Finally Android also comes to the “night mode”, which works the same way as F.lux and night mode Apple to hit the iPhone in iOS 9.3. This function applies a red filter on the screen of your mobile phone to block the blue light bothers your eyes before sleeping.
in addition to night mode in Android N also reached the “dark mode”, which changes all white and bright patterns on the terminal interface by a dark gray does not bother much in sight. This is nothing innovative, but it is something we expect to see in Android N.
These are just some of the features that Google take your operating system. They also ensure that they are working on a better version of Doze, to save battery technology that best manages its consumption when the mobile is not being used. Now this technology will recognize when the screen is off, which means you’ll save battery even when walking with the phone in his pocket.
Android N also includes enhancements that allow you to install applications faster, better file manager, a locking system calls and native Novel wallpapers!
But none of this is final, many things will change. Many features that supposedly come to Android Marshmallow last year were shelved, so some of these functions Android N could suffer the same fate. Anyway, if this is the future of Android, it is a future that looks great.
