Enhancements to battery life

The best that any software update would ever bring would be about extending battery juice. Each year developers are vying to bring such enhancements that will help them achieve this. This time when Android launched its latest OS just after KitKat the biggest thing that came to forefront is about enhancements that enable in extending battery life. It is all about building apps that are battery-friendly and would avoid battery drain.

The latest Android Lollipop has its focus on saving battery to help you get more battery juice. The feature of battery save that gives you 90 minutes of additional battery along with estimated time for full battery charge is indeed fascinating. Go under the Settings menu and you will get options to enable it. This does come as a great relief to those who are outdoors and travelling most of the time.

New design

There has to be a new design and a new look that will accommodate apps that come along with the Android Lollipop. This sure would bring about a new look along with consistency. The material design is something that supports better animation, consistency in touch-enabled responses, and a better Android experience. You will see more transitions, smooth graphic performance, 3D views, better typography, and next level iconography experience.

Changes in Lockscreen

With the latest version of Android OS, you are allowed to host notifications. This comes as the latest enhancement made possible by doing away with the lockscreen widgets. You as a user have the controls for choosing the kind of notifications that you can view and the information that you will get. Additionally, you will be able to view messages and respond to them directly and quickly. The best part is the ability to hide sensitive content that these notifications often display. This way you can choose to see what you want, interact or take action for it and even keep it private.

Creating notifications

There are numerous controls for users that help in controlling your notifications and the way you receive messages. For example, you can make settings for receiving messages at a specific time. This helps you at times when you are busy with other things and do not want to be disturbed. This is what priority notifications are all about. By scheduling time for notifications you will be able to get what you want and when you want. This way you won't miss on anything even when you are busy. Even with calls you can create a schedule, gain control of app notifications or choose to even turn off the app notifications.

Personalized authentication

This time you get the Android Smart Lock that will help you unlock your device using your wearable, your smile or your car. The thing is that this time there are enhancements to this feature as well that will become more user oriented along with taking high security measure. This would be more personalized and will be difficult to override by any hacker.
