New Android 14 news
Check now the news that this new Android 14 will bring:
1. Passkeys
Android 14 will bring a very useful novelty: unique passwords created by the system itself, called passkeys, can be used in third-party applications for authentication. This means that, when authenticating on social networks or stores using biometrics, the system will take control of the rest of the process, ensuring security and practicality.
2. application security
One of the novelties of Android 14 is the possibility for users to view the list of applications installed in the background by the manufacturers. This functionality can be useful for identifying malicious applications, as well as making it easier to eliminate them from the system, ensuring greater security for the device.
3. satellite calls
Google is working to enable satellite audio calling on Android phones. With this, it will be possible to make calls in remote places without the need for a cell phone network through satellites in space. It is important to remember that it will depend on technology support on smartphones to function.
4. Application settings
According to developer group XDA, the upcoming Android operating system will allow users to customize their preferences regarding settings such as Celsius or Fahrenheit temperature, start of the week on Monday or Sunday, imperial or metric measurement system, among others options.
5. Accessibility with increasing source
There is the possibility to increase the system font by up to 200%. This novelty was designed to meet the accessibility needs of users with low vision, allowing them to more easily view content on their mobile devices. From this functionality, the use of the operating system will become more inclusive and accessible for everyone.
6. Android 14 release date
It is expected that during the annual event Google, scheduled for May 10, the company will reveal more details about Android 14. Following the pattern of previous years, the launch will take place progressively from August 2023, with the Pixel, a device manufactured by the company, being the first to receive the update.
