You know what Android Q is it already in development? When Android P It has just landed and at the moment only a privileged few have it, Google is already working on its new version. Android Q at the moment is just the beginning of a project, which will not begin to reach the first smartphones until next year.
However, we already have some information about what we can find in this new version of Android.
Android Q, what we already know about the new version
Notice of old applications
There are apps that were designed for older versions of Android. Therefore, they can give some small problem with newer versions.
In the new Android Q, these apps can continue to be installed. But the system will warn the user that the application is not optimal for that version.
This function serves as an aid for users to use more up-to-date applications. It can also function as a pressure measurement for developers, who will have no choice but to update their apps.
The applications that could be seen with problems are those that are designed to Lollipop or higher. Taking into account that we would already be on the tenth version of Android, it seems reasonable that the system gives a slap on the wrist to those who are not committed to further developments.
Proximity detection in Android Q
The second function that we have known, does not seem very striking. But it can be very practical if you are one of those who hold the mobile close to your ear to listen, for example, to a whatsapp audio.
And it is that this function will be able to detect if you have the mobile next to your ear, when a call rings. If this is the case, its volume will decrease. In this way, you will not have to fear going deaf if you have the mobile close to your ear if they call you. A minor function yes, but practical.
Fragmentation, Android's big problem
Although Android Q will be officially released next year, that is, in 2019. Most users will still take a little longer to enjoy this new version of the operating system.
Keep in mind that only 14% of Android users have Android Oreos. The percentage corresponding to Android P, the latest version, does not even appear in Google's data. This is a graphic proof of the fragmentation between the different versions of the system. One of the great problems that Android has faced since its creation. And the worst thing is that it has not been resolved over the years.
What will be the name of Android q?
This is the million dollar question, when there are rumors of a new version of Android, the name. Several are shuffled and among them, these 5 sound more:
- android quiche
- android quesadilla
- Android Quindim
- Android Fifteen / Fifteen Pie
- Android Quaker Oats
To know in the end, the capricious choice that Google will have. We will know the name of Android Q, next year at the beginning of summer in the northern hemisphere, approximately.
