The second beta of Android M is a step back – Spider’s Web – Spider’s Web

Google released a new beta of its latest operating system – Android M. brings some changes in the appearance of simpler analytics memory usage, and the ability to personalize quick setup and appearance of the upper beam.

We are getting closer to the official release of Android M, which is to take place this autumn. This time, Google does not make a revolution, but rather improves what great zadziało in Lollipopie. With the second beta fixed some shortcomings, but unfortunately introduced a lot of new, annoying errors.



System Calibrator UI

This option is only available when programming mode is activated. It allows any modification of the upper beam and quick settings. We put up these settings, which often use, and completely get rid of those that bring confusion. As a result, in the end I removed the cast and notifications settings Bluetooth, because I use them less frequently than the holidays.

Google releases an eye to users in demonstration mode options. When I turn on the time it will be fixed at 17:20, and remember that the latest version of the system will have a designation of 5.2.

Speaking of screenshots are they now gained rapid removal option.

The new look of the menus

At the top of the government remained the most commonly used applications but the same menu but it remains sorted alphabetically definitely looks neater, because disposed of letters on the left. Very convenient menu bar scrolls accessible on the left, so that even in the event of a decent system littering many appkami you can easily find the right one.



Main Screen Rotation

Improved memory footprint analysis and application permissions

Google introduced a new menu screen appearance of Remembrance and Memorial wewnętrznej- again, it seems cleaner and more minimalist. In addition, you can learn which applications consume the most memory at different times – we have to choose 3, 6 and 12 hours, and all day long.

In addition, we check the menu of what authority the given application.

Although beta runs stably and do not get unexpected phone reboots, it’s not all applications want to work with her. In my case I offended Snapchat, which admittedly displays notifications for incoming messages, but can not run.

In addition to this also offend the application icons that the system has collected through the settings were saved from a previous version. Some of them have their own, and some are humanoid icon little robots.

Annoying it is also possible that the phone does not can store settings when connecting to a computer via a USB cable. Although I note the Media Transfer Protocol option, in practice it every time Nexus connects to the charging mode only.

All Time can not see how to present themselves in practice features such as Google Now (screen below), Android Pay Fingerprint (for obvious reasons) or Multi-window.

Apparently devices that already run on the beta to get Google’s automatic update, which is expected in the next few days. In my case, when I notice I did not get to 20 on Friday, is decided by an independent uploading the update.

At the end of July arise is also the third beta of Android M, and the fourth and last is scheduled for August. In September, to see the light of day is the final version of the system. I hope that the changes will go in the direction of better than in the current beta, because the first did for me a very good impression. I’m not saying that developers spaprali job because the blog for developers can read about a number of minor improvements that … you can not see, but my “user experience” definitely gone downhill.
