I’ve been using the Android 14 Beta for a while now so nothing really new to me for now, but what I liked since the beta is that the battery life got better.
The ability to give apps permissions on a per-file basis is also cool, although it made some apps unusable probably because they aren’t supporting that right now (but maybe that changed or will change soon now that the stable release is out).
So what are the changes you noticed the most and which ones do you like or hate so far?
I hope they keep this trend of releasing android updates with fixes / polish more than new functionalities. Especially the functionalities that put extra background services like when they released digital wellbeing.
In the battery menu It would have been nice if they added the standby time next to the screen on time. “Standby time since last full charge” something like that. Now you need to calculate it and it sucks.
Pixel 7 PRO here and seems that battery take more time to be discharged than in android 13
Is it my sensation or someone else has the same sensation?
Android 14 is what the quarterly feature drops should be.
In developer options you can enable “Predictive back animations” buried towards the bottom. It doesn’t work anywhere except the settings app (yet) and some Google apps when back would take you to the launcher.
was really hoping it would fix the biometric settings bug introduced at the last update of 13 but apparently not
