But XDA Developers seemingly managed to spend time with a very early version of Android&#8217;s next large update, and although it doesn&#8217;t supply the full view, it does provide a look at a few of what Google could have planned.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest visual change (for today) is a system-wide dim manner. Android 9 Pie&#8217;s&#8221; theme&#8221; can be changed from light to dark, but it only really applies to the notification color and the app launcher. XDA&#8217;s screenshots imply that Q will expand dim mode to more areas such as the settings menu, and it might have a setting to force dim mode even in apps that lack a built-in version of it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Google is also continuing to bolster user privacy<\/strong>. After implementing stricter rules about things such as camera\/microphone accessibility and desktop apps in recent releases, it seems like that the company will incorporate a fresh&#8221;allow only while the program is currently in use&#8221; permission. Currently, Android Pie provides just an off or on toggle for sensitive permissions such as location, therefore adding more flexibility Is a Great move since some programs will not operate if a consent is disabled completely There is also a developer setting for built-in display recording, but that&#8217;s not yet fully working in this early build of the OS.<\/p>\n<span class=\"seethis_lik\"><span>Also read:<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/entertainment\/what-is-freely-tv-app-new-bbc-itv-streaming-platform\/\">What Is Freely?

Both Android Oreo and Android Pie were released in August after a few months of beta testing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the event the customary cycle holds, it&#8217;s going to be a few months before Google is prepared to share<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":147,"featured_media":3215,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[133],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/rest\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3214"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/rest\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/rest\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/rest\/wp\/v2\/users\/147"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/rest\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3214"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/rest\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3214\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4442,"href":"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/rest\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3214\/revisions\/4442"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/rest\/wp\/v2\/media\/3215"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/rest\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3214"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/rest\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3214"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.the-next-tech.com\/rest\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3214"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
