What to Expect from Android 6.0 Marshmallow
Android 6.0 Marshmallow brings a host of new features and improvements over its predecessor, Android Lollipop. Some of the key features include:
- App Permissions: Marshmallow introduces a new permissions model that lets users control what data and features apps can access. This means you can now allow or deny permissions on a case-by-case basis.
- Doze Mode: This feature helps to improve battery life by putting the device into a deeper sleep state when it is not in use, thereby reducing background activity.
- Now on Tap: Google Now on Tap provides contextual information by analyzing the content on your screen. For example, if you’re reading a text about a movie, you can long-press the home button to get more information about the movie without leaving the app.
- Fingerprint Support: Native fingerprint support allows for more secure and convenient unlocking of devices and authentication for apps and payments.
- Improved Volume Controls: Marshmallow brings back the simplified volume controls, making it easier to manage notifications, media, and alarms.
These features, along with various performance improvements and bug fixes, make Android 6.0 Marshmallow a significant update for Motorola users.
Motorola has always been proactive in rolling out updates, and this announcement is in line with their commitment to providing the best user experience. The inclusion of both newer and older models in the update list shows Motorola’s dedication to supporting a wide range of devices.
For users of the listed Motorola devices, the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update promises to enhance the overall functionality and user experience. The update will not only bring new features but also improve the performance and security of the devices.
