Android 13 Features
Android 13 seems a minor upgrade over Android 12. It has brought a few changes and features. Let’s check them out.
Refined ‘Material You’ theme
In terms of appearance, the iconic Material You theme by Android will now support more icons from third-party apps. It will have the media playback widget that will dynamically change colors based on the music you’re listening to. In addition to that, you can also assign different languages to different apps. Bedtime mode is also getting dark mode as well as wallpaper dimming feature.
New Privacy Features
Now, with this latest update, apps will not be able to access your entire media gallery when they want to share one item from it. The best part is that sensitive clipboard history, such as phone numbers, emails, or login details, will automatically get deleted “after a period of time”. Furthermore, Apps will now have to take permission before sending notifications as well.
Spatial Audio & Bluetooth LE Audio
The latest update will bring support for the Spatial Audio and Bluetooth LE Audio. However, these will only work with accessories that are compatible with them. It will allow for lower latency Bluetooth connections, enhanced audio, and audio broadcasting to multiple gadgets at the same time.
New taskbar
The taskbar has been given a polished look. It will let you see all your apps at a glance and will allow you to easily drag and drop apps into the split-screen mode, similar to Galaxy Z Fold 4’s taskbar.
Themed Icons
Themed Icons that were added in Android 12 as a part of Material You are now available for all developers. You can expect your favorite apps to soon adapt to themed icons as well.
