Een nieuwe bètaversie van Android 14 is uitgebracht. Google heeft Android 14 Beta 4 voorzien van verschillende verbeteringen en nieuwe functies. We zetten ze op een rijtje.
Android 14 Beta 4
In de laatste bètarelease die is verschenen van Android 14, zijn weer een hoop verbeteringen en nieuwe functies doorgevoerd door Google. Je kunt bijvoorbeeld kiezen uit nieuwe profielafbeeldingen en er is een nieuw icoontje voor wanneer de telefoon op stil staat. Gebruikers krijgen in de modelinformatie voortaan te zien uit welk jaar de telefoon komt.
Er zijn echter nog meer nieuwe functies gevonden. Dankzij 9to5Google weten we welke dit zijn, en die zetten we hieronder op een rijtje.
- New silent mode icon in the status bar. It will now show a crossed-out speaker instead of a crossed-out bell, which was previously seen in the volume control when the ringtone and notification sliders were separated.
- New Google Lens icon in the Pixel Launcher search bar.
- When setting up a 6-digit pin code, you can now enable ‘Auto-confirm unlock’. When activated, the phone will unlock immediately after entering the correct pin code without having to press the confirm button.
- Under Settings / About phone / Model there is a new item “Manufactured year”.
