It is recommended to install on Android 6.0. Update: how to update to the new version and get a download? Guide to details

Golovna / Basic functionality

We have found that we have received the sixth version of the most popular mobile platform. The interface doesn't need to be redesigned like Lollipop, and Google has added a bunch of new features that most people may not be aware of. Therefore, we decided to compile our own guide to the main features of this OS, so that the skin of the skin can once again enjoy all the accessories.

Yak koristuvatisti poshuk on the screen

Google Assistant now provides users with the information they need, and by simply searching the screen, you can quickly view a report about an unknown word or fragment of text. Chantly, we know the situation in many ways, when the place of the sustrich is mentioned, about how you want to know more, because you don’t know.

Previously, you had to close the program, then enter the name of the place (for example, a restaurant) in the search engine. Now, in the past, you can even remove the necessary information directly from the add-on by clicking the “Add Home” button. Google will automatically show you the route to the city, add a menu and display phone numbers.

That's not all. Searching the screen is crazy with most programs. Before you watch the film, you can quickly use this function to find the trailer on YouTube or a page on the movie portal with information about the film, as well as messages to actors and actresses.

Let’s say you posted a post on Google+ or Facebook with a riddle about a movie that got you hooked. Searching the screen will help you find out all the necessary information about him. This way you can find information about places, TV shows, songs that you can guess in the text on the screen.

How to use energy-saving mode in Android 6

Doze is a new charging saving mode on Android 6.0, which significantly reduces battery life. The point is that if the gadget is not used at all hours, the sleep mode is turned on, and the activity of the accessories decreases.

However, there is no need to worry about missed notifications: since the developers have provided such an opportunity, the programs, as before, need to provide notifications and notifications.

You can turn it on or off, start the program manually. To open the “Adjustment” → “More” curve, select the “Battery” section. Next, put three dots on the upper right corner of the screen, look for the item “Save battery power”, go to the “Do not waste charge” tab.

We know the program on the list, which is not necessary to use the energy-saving mode. Remember that the more unoptimized programs there are, the more pressure on the battery, so pay attention to the blame only for the truly important.

How to deal with “no-fuss” programs

Some gadgets can malfunction for no reason. It is also possible to identify the most costly benefits of the new, unexpectedly named “Memory” function. We climb at “Nalashtuvannya”, obviously separated from the same name.

Here you can see the average RAM usage over the remaining three years, six, twelve years or a whole day. And the option “Program memory usage” will show how much RAM is used for each program. In this way, additional payments are calculated that support even more system resources.

How to use Google Translate in other programs

Tim, who often complains about Google, is excited about the new feature. In any program, you can see the text you want to translate, and select the “Translate” option in the context menu. You no longer need to copy text from programs and then paste it on the web page with the service. The option is available in any program that supports text visibility.

How to use the direct sharing function
"Easter eggs" as seen by developers in Android Marshmallow

Google wants the so-called “Great Eggs” in the skin version of Android, and Marshmallow is not the culprit. This secret is similar to the one in the previous version. This is a copy of the Flappy Bird game, which requires you to fly between the code jumpers without sealing them. The other part had ice cubes, and the other part had marshmallows. You can also now add 6 gravels.

To open the game, go to “Settings” and click on the “About phone” row. Then press the “Android Version” item repeatedly until the letter “M” appears in the center of the screen. We press on her with some marshmallows with antennas. I tap the screen again (at least three times), after which we simply place our finger on the little thing until the game starts.

How to customize the customization panel in Android 6

If you slide your fingers down on the screen, a quick adjustment panel will appear. It looks just great. And we can become even cooler, as we improve them for ourselves. Fortunately, Google has added this capability to all versions of Android. However, before doing this, you will need to unlock the System UI Tuner (additional settings).

For this purpose, there is an icon that looks like a gear in the upper right corner. It's released in a few seconds. Further information about those that System UI Tuner has been adjusted to “Adjustment”.

Look at them and also the new row of System UI Tuner at the bottom, when you open the settings window. Here we can drag and see any panel items. In addition, new options can be added.

How to increase battery charge in mobile phones

It’s handy if the battery status is displayed in a row, but I want to get a lot of rhubarb. You need to go through the additional section to adjust the System UI Tuner (we have already included it in the front part of the statistics). Now, in the “Customization” menu, select “System UI Tuner”, then set the switch to the on position in the row “Show battery level in mobile phones”.

How to turn on all sounds on your smartphone using the volume button

Shutting down your gadget on Android Lollipop was not so easy. Fortunately, Google has added the ability to switch to silent mode (which prevents the alarm clock from going off). Simply change the volume to a minimum by pressing the volume button.

How to use the “Don’t rush” mode

Google has changed the last version of Android, which in Marshmallow is called the “Don’t turbo” mode. You can find it in the Swedish settings panel. Three mode options are available:

  1. "Completely quiet"
  2. "Tilka alarm clock"
  3. "Only people are important."

Any selection from them will operate until this function is activated, or automatically until the specified time. The first two options have names that speak for themselves, and when you choose the third option, you have the ability to generate notifications for your contacts.

How to manage addon rights in Android 6

In our opinion, the best thing about the latest version of Android is the ability to allow permission. Otherwise, it seems that the program can eliminate specific rights to retrieve data from the gadget. Let's say, if you respect that you don't need access to Contacts, you can easily not give it.

Of course, when installed, you will have to accept a request. And the axis then goes straight to “Nalastuvan”, where we find the “Additions” section. Now we select the required game or program and stamp it in the order “Allowed”. On the next screen, we see a list of all the permissions of the selected program; on the contrary, the skin option is switched over. You know what to do. In some situations, the reduction of singing rights can lead to additional pardons, but it is allowed to be seen as easily as they are seen.

You can also view all programs sorted by type of permissions. Let's go to “Add-ons” → “Add-ons”, click on the gear icon, go to additional settings, now click on the “Allow add-ons” item. Before us is the transfer of programs with access to specific components of the device, for example, the camera, microphone or contacts.

How to keep association programs from sending messages

On Android 6, you can set it up so that the sent songs are always opened by the selected add-on. This possibility is present in any version, but previously it was necessary to select from the list or set this parameter for processing, and not always work as needed.

Most versions have a few more options for this function. From the “Customization” menu, go to “Add-ons” and click on the icon next to the gear. Next, click in the order “Submissions from add-ons”, a list of all programs that have been sent will appear on the screen, which will automatically open. Here you can link web addresses to your programs and select to automatically open the message sent by the program or immediately confirm it manually.

Yak shukati file

We need ES Explorer for all purposes, but you can navigate through folders and files of Android Marshmallow without it. Lizemo in “Adjustment” → “Memory” at the bottom – the option “Shukati”, we will stamp on them. A tree of all files and folders from manual views will open. You can sort the list by name, date of change and size by clicking on the gear icon. To find out, the file is embossed on a magnifying glass.

How to see the text

Visibility of text on the touch screen has always been implemented seamlessly, due to Google's innovations, the process on Marshmallow has significantly improved. As before, you can emboss and erase the text you want to see, but now you can move your finger across the screen to see it automatically.

How to regulate thickness

It is simpler to carry out thickening on the sixth version, lower on the heels. Press the thickness adjustment button and move the thickness scale on the screen. The arrow at the upper right part of the screen indicates additional settings (the volume of system sounds, music, video and alarm clock). The stench will grow on the path “Nalastuvannya” → “Sounds and notification.”


The 5.0 Lollipop update brings a lot of new and useful features. Android OS has adopted a unified design and a new vector design. The arrival of update 6.0 Marshmallow is important to passers-by, since such large-scale changes cannot be made. Moreover, the new version of the system includes several important additions that were not available in previous versions. To take a look at the system, let’s take the Motorola Moto MAXX 2 (XT1565) smartphone.

Interface

In Android 6.0, the concept of Material Design has been retained in the public eye. Therefore, changes in the interface are too cosmetic.

Work table

To personalize the Google Now search service, click on the desktop from the leftmost screen. In this case, the innovation will only appear in the Google launcher installed on Nexus/Pixel devices or installed in the Google Play program store.

Accessories menu

Roztashuvannya programs vikonano at the sight of the grid, with the throats of the beast down, and not evil to the right, like Android Lollipop. The search is being expanded, and the first row of entries is under 4 programs, which are often vikorized. Then follow the program with the Russian alphabet, and then with the English one. The order cannot be changed.

Varto note that the most important changes will be fussed without the Google launcher. In third-party shells and in various devices, such as the Moto MAXX 2, the throat has become excessive, and there is no search in the program menu every day.

Screen lock

Visually, the lock screen has lost itself. Insertion of text or special information under the date is available, for example, the contact information of the leader. The text is set in the security section, system settings of the device.

The quick launch icon for calls at the bottom left corner has been replaced with personalized prompts. Perhaps Google praised this function as more important than quick access to dialing a phone number.

Congratulations

The notification system has removed some improvements. Now, in the direct area - cards, below the text of the notification, buttons are displayed that allow you to end the main actions without going to the program or the other section of the settings. For example: install or install the system update, activate the energy saving mode, etc.

As long as you keep your finger on the card, you can open the item for accessing selected programs. Among the selected options, there is external blocking of the notification display, the priority is to display notifications in the “do not turbo” mode and allow the display of notifications.

There are also three modes available for displaying notifications on the lock screen: show in general, capture special information, and turn off display.

Innovation

Rights of contributors

When installing programs from Google Play or unknown devices, a sign appears indicating the necessary rights (allowed) for the programs to function. It is not known which rights are truly being taken into account, and which are intended for the good purposes of the publisher. And the user has only two choices: wait a while and give the program new access, or be encouraged to use the program.

In Android 6.0, it will be asked when installing a separate partition behind the connection. Now you need to confirm the rights necessary to run the program and basic functionality. Other permissions are confirmed or verified during operation. Moreover, previously the rights are enabled in the section for setting up a specific program.

Gain control alert

In earlier versions of Android, the volume buttons no longer alerted users. The loudness of other sound signals needed to be set directly in the adjustment section or directly in addition.

In six versions, the volume control is divided into three channels: input notifications, multimedia and alarm clock. Moreover, the thickness change is carried out automatically and requires no additional supply to the transmission channel. For example, in the programmer you can change the volume of music or video, in the alarm clock for notifications, and on the desktop or in settings – the volume of the call.

In order to establish the thickness of the banana, do not immediately go into adjustment or as a final addition. When you press the volume button, the button presses the button to open/select channels.

"Don't rush" mode

Android Marshmallow has expanded the list of options for the "Don't rush" mode. The hour of the active mode is set from the quick control panel. This is where you go to the system settings, where rules are set and the task mode is set up automatically. For example, turn on alerts before going to bed - from 22:00 to 7:00, for a planned meeting from 11:00 to 11:45 or so.

Work with text

In Android 6.0, the text viewing mode has changed. When the right-handed cordon is broken, the entire word is visible. Todi is like a left-handed person - character by character. So, after seeing the text, a context menu automatically appears with a choice of actions: copy text, copy, send, etc.

Please note that the “share” function in Android Marshmallow is called Direct Share. This is a quick and functional way to share information with other clients. Whose specific functions are the same, as indicated by the author of a particular report.

System Tuner UI

There is a customization menu that allows you to customize the icons on the user interface panel. To display the item, you need to press the gear icon in the open row for a few seconds. A similar operation is carried out by selecting the system settings menu item.

Transferring these add-on data to a memory card

In Android 6.0 Marshmallow, the function of transferring data from add-ons has been added. If, at the time of installing the program or gri, there is not enough space on the internal storage device, the system allows you to transfer the data to an external storage device. If you save it in an encrypted format, you will need to format the memory card first.

Backup copy of program parameters

Now the setup of the programs is saved by Khmaru. This allows you to spend less than an hour setting up a new device.

Setting up

The division of systemic adjustments was lost by itself. New functions have appeared, which are important to find in the submenu.

Screen

When you select the font size option, you can manually set the height value for the text.

Program

In earlier versions of the OS, there is a section containing information about installing add-ons, active RAM and connections. Now the section contains reporting information about the installation of programs: the amount of disk space used, data transfer, permissions and assignments. So it’s all about the amount of energy consumed, the amount of memory lost and the maximum utilization of operative memory.

Pressing the icon next to the gear will open the additional settings section. Here you can change programs after installation, for example, if you have two installed programs and you need the files to be opened in a specific player. It is shown which programs are allowed to interfere with system settings. Battery protection is being adjusted. The ensign behind all the additions is to save money.

Memory

The section shows the amount of occupied and free space. For a detailed look at the available information, it is enough to select a category to click on - video, add-ons, etc. The same information is available in the add-on cache, which is displayed for the category.

You also need to use the file explorer. The manager's capabilities are limited, but primitive actions are taken away.

Battery

The “battery consumption” information shows the amount of energy consumed by the screen, Wi-Fi or other accessory. There are also recommendations for extending the autonomous robot's hours. For example, for the screen – set the brightness to a lower level, and for Wi-Fi – turn on the module at night. Moreover, for ease of reference, buttons are displayed to go to the appropriate point in the settings.

Safety

Android 6.0 supports the fingerprint scanner on the system level. So it is easy to connect the unlocked device to another reliable device - a smart phone or a keychain, or in any place - at home, at work, etc.

Є zakhist at raptovom reset to factory settings. If a third-party device is installed and data is cleared, to start the system you will have to enter the data of the previous Google account. Information about this is stored in a protected data area, which is difficult to obtain even if the owner is unblocked.

Similarly, in our laboratory we have reviewed the new mobile OS Android 5.0 Lollipop, and now, according to Google’s new policy, major system updates are made approximately once a year. So it’s time to look at the replacement for “Ice”, as the new name “Marshmallow” aka Marshmallow has been given.

Last time we started looking at the old version of the system, there was a lot to criticize there, but in this episode there were no serious changes to the interface plan and no new provisions. Well, just change the approach a little.

It is necessary to clarify that the review was carried out on my special device – the LG Nexus 5, which requires taking into account the fact that the smartphone is completely full of add-ons, and the battery has already been “asked” for two years. However, that’s how it’s supposed to be.

Interface

The original interface did not recognize serious graphic changes:

Android 5.1 Android 6.0

If you're not surprised by the animation, it's not so easy to tell the difference between the new and old versions.

Android 5.1 Android 6.0

The curtains have changed the order of the icons and they told us that they can be customized, as the authorities of custom firmware have long been afraid of. Unfortunately, LG Nexus 5, System UI Tuner is not available for this model.

Trikutnik tells us that there are two buttons.

The main complaints raised by the traders have not yet been corrected. For example, the Wi-Fi button (screenshot to the beast) on the top curtain of the panel offers various functions when clicked on the title or icon. Wouldn’t it be easy to put in place the obvious switch for the koristuvach, and instead of putting in the well-known gear instead of the knitted one?

It’s interesting that changing the orientation of the desktop to horizontal is not available on the LG Nexus 5. Perhaps they “allowed it to be spent” on the Developer Preview and again.

The keyboard did not change, but it was even worse. It rejects the primary richness of the “classic mode” if another number of displacement symbols is to the right (as on keyboards). Ale is already a thing.

Android 5.1 Android 6.0

The program menu now scrolls down and is equipped with an alphabet search, which is activated by repeatedly pressing the button. In my opinion, the vertical orientation of the list is less handy, since previously you could easily remember which desktop the program was on, and now you have to quickly figure it out on this “forgiveness”.

Plus, the first row of additions to the list of visions is rice, which are programs that are most often revealed. Again, it’s not entirely clear, perhaps, that in 99% of cases you need to place this icon on the desktop and/or in the lower status bar?

In addition, you can now view programs from the desktop without having to go to the program menu.

This is the same situation in the widget selection menu. In my opinion, Windows Phone does not give anyone peace of mind.

When you see the classic Cut-Copy-Paste set, the Share button is now available. This device is called Direct Share, and it allows you to share your messages through different programs directly, without Copy-Paste. It is true that the supplement itself may support this function.

In addition to the volume of alarms, alarm clocks and media content now appear directly from the drain window. There is no longer a need for a full-fledged mixer that can regulate the intensity of skin active programs, as was the case with Windows 7 and above. Well, not all at once.

Before speech, the “Do not disturb” function, where DND allows you to cut off all notification sounds except priority ones. This priority is set in the adjacent menu.

However, for the entire hour I have been watching, I still don’t know the stagnant mode, and there is no way to put other contacts (or a group of contacts) into the “Not priority” group, including from various social networks and instant messengers. As this will be implemented on par with the profile manager, you will become a killer chip. In the meantime, the good old “Airplane mode” is better for me than DND.

Marshmallow interface

Presentations at Google I/O 2014 Material Design and in the new Android, there are, of course, no special changes. Google has also added a useful function to change the menu settings to dark. Unfortunately, the release doesn’t have that. Another significant change is the add-ons menu. There, as before, more programs are now scrolled down and sorted in alphabetical order. You can’t say what the right decision is, but you can call. From above, several programs are displayed that are most often used.

Loxrin has also changed a little. Previously, you could quickly use the dialer or camera, but now there is a voice search and the same camera. This fact confirms what Google itself said about Google Now, and about a few years later. To be honest, I don’t even have easy access to the “Telephone”, because I don’t use voice chat often, and I have to use the phone gradually.

Before the speech, the dialer was thoroughly redesigned, now the click history is displayed in the card style. Once added to the contact, the design has changed slightly. Setting up has become much more convenient, even on Android Lollipop.

There are a number of minor innovations in Marshmallow that will make the device simpler. So, for example, the “Do not turbocharge” mode has appeared on the curtains, which is slowly adjusting.

The program menu for settings looks much different - the horizontal tabs have been tidied up, and by clicking on the icon for setting up the animal, you can gain access to additional functions: “For marriage”, “Posylannya”, “Allowed” and others.

At the “Memory” item you can now see which program has used the memory for what period of time.

Google has created a normal backup of data - not just updating programs from the Play Market, but also updating the device using all the data and adjustments.

The “Battery” item hasn’t changed much, but fans are clearly pleased that there is a lot of magic that is associated with the skin process. Previously, such functionality could only be reached for help.

Yshov 2015, and Google has blocked the display of hundreds of battery charges in a row. True, for now it is only available through customization for consumers. To turn them off, you need to tap the storage number several times, after which the “For Retailers” item will appear in the settings, where you need to activate. This mode can also be activated by long pressing on the pictogram and adjusting the notification window.

In addition to displaying hundreds of images, here you can adjust the row of images, display the curtain, and turn on the demo mode to help you manually take screenshots.

In general, the Android 6.0 Marshmallow interface has changed to be more beautiful, and minor cosmetic changes will help get things right. Before some innovations happen, the hostility from the outside is still less than positive.

An unusual feature is the file manager, which can be opened in the “Storm and USB” section using the “Open” button.

The highlight of the show was the Google Now service, which got smarter and acquired the Now On Tap function. The point is that when you press the “DoHome” button, the system is able to find the place, the Viconavians, people, music or films in the supplement that is being reviewed and displays information. On paper it doesn’t impress at all, but in real life it’s harsh and tame.

For example, if you want to find a place in Hangouts, you can immediately open information about it, such as a cafe or restaurant, and book a table. You can use Google Maps, YouTube, Google Play Music, etc. Please note that Now On Tap is not magic; you cannot view information for absolutely everything that is on the screen. The more programs installed on the device, the better Now On Tap works.

For the locals of the Russian lands, this is an unacceptable news - the Russian function does not work, so they will have to remix the language system with the English one.

A similar trend has been on iOS for a long time, and with the release of Marshmallow it migrated to Android. The essence is very simple - the user himself determines which programs allow access. Moreover, immediately before the first startup, the system asks for what data to give access. If any thing can be done, the decision can be changed, as was already intended.

Android 6.0 is officially updated with API Level 23, which allows you to customize permissions for programs. All programs on the device must be updated to support this feature.

Not a lot of people know that Android 5 Lollipop also added a blocking feature as an add-on. They finished off the last bits. The point is that when this function is turned on, the system freezes the program on the screen, and you can’t just exit it. It’s really cool for those moments when you want to take your phone.

To start, you need to activate the function in settings.

After this, the “Attach” icon will appear in the multitasking menu.

To exit, you must simultaneously press the “Back” and “Look” buttons.

Which mode does not have a fixed program. It is impossible to open the curtain again.

Productivity and autonomy

At the Google I/O 2015 conference, the company introduced a new Android Doze mode, which helps save battery power when the device is in standby mode.

Another function – App Standby – also allows you to save the charge if the device is not disabled. This mode is adjusted through the program menu. The teacher himself chooses which programs can be used “in full” and which ones will protect the charge.

Google stated that Android 6.0 will allow you to save up to 30% battery charge, and the Nexus 5's lifespan has increased almost twice as much. To be honest, the difference is practically not noticeable.

For productivity purposes, the gadget really comes to life here. For the entire hour, there was no water bug, communication between programs occurred without any hiccups, and the system itself worked flawlessly. Possibly, this is due to the coloring of the middle of the Viconnian ART.

On May 28, 2015, at the Google I/O conference, the search giant announced Android M, and it became possible to download literally just a few years after the presentation. And less than three months later, on September 17, 2015, the system was renamed to Android 6.0 Marshmallow (marshmallow).

It's interesting that Google decided to switch to a new versioning cycle. The sound giant can inherit the butt of Apple, which is churning out one major version of iOS on the river. We don’t care much about the particular sense in this regard – the number of innovations without any growth will change the approach before assigning an index. In other words, in 2016 we can get Android 7.0. Hello, let’s marvel at what the new Android 6.0 is promoting:

Android 6.0 - what's new?

Ozhe, Android 6.0. There’s a decent amount of new here, although not as rich as it was in . There are about 50 changes in all, and there are only a few of the main ones. Let's go through them.

Allowed from the supplements

Please, many of us remember that when you install an add-on on your smartphone (that’s right, with Android on board), we are first informed that the size of the entire screen contains a bunch of icons, a lot of texts, and at the bottom right-handed, the “Accept” button has been redesigned. Do you know what this is? There are a lot of permissions that require additional assistance for your work. If you are convinced that there is no date, the program simply does not install.


Be safe, be safe, and do the same as required, right? Perhaps this is what Google did, adding new functionality to Android 6.0. Now the required list of permissions will not be installed - instead of them, notifications about the limits will be displayed. For example, if the program first wants to deny access to GPS or wants to quickly access the microphone, camera, etc. The selected option will be remembered and you will no longer be notified, however, you can change the settings.


It’s clear that such a thing was crushed in . It was called App Ops - a special permissions manager. In the presence of correspondents, the method of its inclusion was found and described in a report. And then Google simply removed him from the system so that there would be no further complaints.

If you are going to get married, then how does this blocking of permissions work? In Android 4.3, if you want to block it, the program, when trying to get to the “harrowed fruit”, will not just “get shocked”, but, apparently, will be “stunned”. In other words, there will be an incorrect completion of the supplement with a possible loss of operational data.

The most important thing is Android 6.0. Now, if a program, for example, “knocks” on the Internet, but its work is blocked, then for it everything will be arranged in such a manner, there is no connection whatsoever. Or a camera, GPS, Bluetooth, etc. not available now It is better to show consistent notifications about the amend, rather than face the systemic blame.

In addition, developers will be able to implement a new function of the system. Then you know that the problem is with the protection of permissions, and in reality it has “collapsed and is not working.” This means that if you have been blocked, the program will tell you: I can’t help you, I’ve been blocked! And with the App Ops and Android 4.3 versions, it’s impossible to understand why it’s not working – that’s why the manager is the winner.

At any time, the new function of Android 6.0 will provide even greater control over programs and greater system security.

Scanner support

A few days before Google I/O 2015, information began to appear that before the update of Android 6.0 there would be no support for fingerprint scanners. This is not new at all - in 2013 Motorola and Apple mastered it, then HTC, Samsung and other companies followed suit. It’s no less true that all the functionality of the fingerprint sensor was programmed by the manufacturers, just as at the same time the system was developed only by Apple, but how could it have been different?


Now there is a special API that allows you to scan the text with a scanner for impressions in Android. This means universality for everyone - retailers will be able to select different types of authorization options for their applications and will not have to deal with the peculiarities of each provider - everything will be the same for everyone. If you need to contact us, Samsung also has a fingerprint scanner that can be used to unlock devices and authorize a number of branded applications. Third-party programs simply cannot be victorious. And Xiaomi has stated that until Android supports fingerprinting, it has no intention of adding a scanner to its smartphones.


Zagalom now everything will change. However, the funniest thing about the current situation is that there is no API for bitmap scanners, but there are no scanners themselves. Getting ahead of ourselves, Android 6.0 is only available on the Nexus 5, 6 and 9, and it will remove the component. Well, everything works in theory, but it will be possible to try the new “gadget” in practice no earlier than the release of the new Nexus with a character scanner.

Doze mode – energy optimization

Do you know that Android 5.0 solved all the energy problems? Do you know? Ale on Google now no one has anything to say. Well, this trick was presented as one of the main ones: here you have something new that launches and finishes programs more efficiently, and protects the battery charge in a way that you never dreamed of. In reality, everything did not turn out as good as on paper. The first half of 2015 will be over, and we will introduce a new panacea for the rapid drainage of the battery.


Doze mode ensures energy savings at such a level, wow! Theoretically, initially. And this theory sounds something like this: the more a smartphone or tablet is in hibernation mode, the better. This time, Google intends to target them even more often. At the same time, so that the operator does not miss a notification or call, the device should work if there is no human responsibility.

It’s a good idea that the Terminator and the Matrix are just around the corner, because today’s phone has a lot of sensors that know where to be, collapsing in the face of people around them. Vlasna, whose whole idea is that since a number of people are absent, it is possible to “save”, or, in other words, all background processes are turned on, depriving the bare minimum for work.

Then Doze is activated when you turn off your mobile device and go anywhere or just go to bed - in which case the discharge rate will be significantly reduced. As it turns out in practice, it’s surprising that the idea doesn’t always look bad.

USB Type-C support

The USB Type-C standard or simply USB-C is gradually gaining popularity. Let us briefly remind you that, having appeared at the same time as the USB 3.1 specification, one of the main features was the increase in the bandwidth of the interface up to 10 Gbps to USB 3.0. Well, USB Type-C is a connection type that transfers to a new connector that can be used on all devices.


Apparently, the ability to connect a cable either way is not the main feature of USB Type-C. In addition, it adds a lot of additional functions, including charging capabilities, according to the USB Power Delivery 2.0 specification. Zokrem is used for a power supply of 1.5 and 3.0 A at a voltage of 5 Art.


Android 6.0, as you guessed, supports USB Type-C, and at the same time it also includes charging modes. No, we are not talking only about the increased power of the current, which gives an increase in charging speed, but also about such things as recharging other devices. We are talking about those that can charge phones, smartphones and tablets in one way: a phone from a tablet, a smartphone from a tablet and a tablet from a smartphone, as well as other “concerned” options. It is unlikely that this function will be absolutely necessary, but in certain situations it will be useless.

In addition, until devices on Android 6.0 are installed, MIDI keyboards can be connected to the USB Type-C connector. It will further expand the multimedia warehouse of Android.

Search Google Now in programs

In fact, this function is called Google Now on Tap and it is called when you press the DoDoma button for a long time. When launched, Google Now scans what's on the screen and registers the card with additional information.


The idea is there for the future. Let's say you're talking about a movie or a new music album, or something like that. The context from your screen is obvious and Google Now can be understood. Dovge Utromann, the buttons of the Dodoma, to that, the context of the context of the Rospіtniy, I zgіnoy, with him, is wounded up the card of the ribs: Dovikka about Film Zna IMDB, vіdomosti about Kraina, and format about the album I so far.


Moreover, the capabilities of Google Now on Tap are significantly wider - information can be obtained not only from Google searches, but also from installed programs. Here the main thing is that their developers implement the same functionality - they add the ability to index data in the middle of programs.


In other words, Google Now on Tap is a kind of intelligent assistant that works in any program and gives useful hints when necessary. Theoretically, there is nothing wrong with its functioning, unless the developer creates a completely atypical application interface.

Chrome Custom Tabs

Any developer can add a browser to their Android program. For this purpose, a special component was created that will ensure the robot engine renders the web page in the middle of your program. But there is one unpleasant moment here - everything is not connected with the main system browser. Your entered passwords, search history, saved cookies, etc. are not available there.


Now this problem can be solved by adding the Chrome browser “stuff” to your program. In fact, the functionality will be lost, otherwise you won’t have to re-enter passwords, and the site will remember you.


Natomist was given one more useful function - confirming instructions from the appendices. For example, you click on the message on the page of Facebook, Twitter, VKontakte, etc., and then you are asked to open it with a trusted client, if you have permission.

New clipboard panel

Using the clipboard, the copy-paste itself, is never easy in Android. If you remember, having seen a fragment of text, a panel with options to copy, paste, revise, see everything else appears. Everything would be fine, but it would be wrong, because you need to be amazed at the screen, especially on the large display, and don’t go away immediately.


In Android 6.0, the popup panel is now displayed according to the visible text. This is already implemented in iOS and surprise surprise Windows Phone. Google has now caught up with its competitors, but the new panel is still not performing well.

Simplified adjustment of tension

Android 5.0 is so clever with its adjustments, wow! Once again, bringing the noise to a minimum, the sound began to fade, and another press of the button caused vibration, then in five years the quiet mode was not lost. It was necessary to choose one of three options: disable vibration for all notifications, for priority ones, or still lock until other instructions.


Android 6.0 adds a lot of functionality - you can “silence” your smartphone or tablet by pressing down. Ale, for needs, you can adjust any steps and the information will be sensitive.

Updates list of programs

The list of programs in Android 5 has become so bright, with a white ashes. The rich man didn’t even deserve to speak. Do you think Android 6.0 is “darker”? No way, but new possibilities have appeared here.


Let us turn to the old method of rewinding the appendages - vertical larynxes instead of horizontal ones. Moreover, evil has now been introduced to the alphabet for scientific grouping. We do not exclude that this is not the final version of the design.

At the very top there was a search field for add-ons, and right below it there were four programs that are the most frequently used. At first glance it looks tame.

Saving backups from Google Drive

One of the most attractive features of the iPhone and iPad is the ability to back up all data to iCloud. This operation allows you to save all the information, training and specific data from wasting, and allows you to quickly and painlessly update everything. As on the original device, so on the other one.


The first axis can now appear in Android 6.0. Updating contacts and programs through Google's cloud account could have been done for a long time, but you will have to immediately back up the data to the device. Well, maybe it’s about the outside. For a time, the “important” add-on files that are necessary for their work will not be saved - it’s imperative that you expose your servers to such scams! And so the retailers will be able to tell you what is necessary to save, and what is not needed for renewal.

Everything is recorded in Google Drive. And, most importantly, such a “backup” will not appear in the available capacity of your gloomy monster - everything will be placed in a nearby folder.

Multi-window mode on tablets

This has been talked about for a long time. Google has clearly lost the ability to use the Multi Window mode introduced by Samsung on the Galaxy Note II in 2012. In Android 6.0, the first glimpses of this functionality have begun to be seen on the same system, and not in the smartphone and tablet market. However, it is buried even deeper there and is activated through the addition of firmware to the remaining version of TWRP. In addition, it works even better on the Nexus 9 tablet.


The Google version splits the screen into quadrants - you can view 1 to 4 programs at a time. With one and so everything became clear. Two pieces fit together one by one, dividing the work table vertically or horizontally. When three programs are open, the screen is divided in half: one half has one add-on, and the other half has two others. Well, with the fourth, everything is so clear - the skin appendix can see its own “square”.


Vikritya is on duty from the dispatcher. Everything still works poorly and motorically glitches, so we cannot exclude the availability of this function in the final version of Android 6.0.

Offline mode Google Maps and YouTube

This change is more significant than the Google Maps and YouTube programs themselves, below Android 6.0, prote. Also, Google Maps does not allow offline mode. It’s true, once again we’ll get it right! In other words, you can look for the saved fragment of the card, use all the balls for it, and so on - to what extent such a card can be admired and that’s all.


From YouTube the situation is the same. You can save the clips on the device and watch them later. True, the hour of review is fixed at 48 years - after them they will be deleted.

We saw Android Pay as a different statistic than this. Formally, this payment system was introduced with Android 6.0, but is available on all devices equipped with NFC chips. There is a need for retailers and stores to support Google’s initiative.


However, the company has already begun to work with financial institutions, stores, etc. – the company is expected to work at at least 700 thousand points. True, all the stinks are still important in the United States, and such contactless payments will be launched soon, so “it will be holy on our street.”


It must be said that Android Pay is not the same as Google's payment system. Previously, Google Wallet was already presented ("Gaman Google"), but did not become particularly popular. And no, the new implementation is not just a rename. Android Pay follows the same principle as Apple Pay. By linking your bank card to the payment system, your data will not be transferred to the person to whom you pay for the purchase of goods and services. Google, as they say, will complete all the formalities of payment with the bank and store.


At the moment, Google Wallet is not closed yet. Any time now the old system will continue to work, although we respectfully, sooner or later the joke giant will pull everyone over to Android Pay.

Before speaking, the upgrade of Android Pay to Android 6.0 confirms the fact that the payment system has been operating since the summer of 2015, and the new version of the OS will appear no earlier than the fall.

How to install Android 6.0

Android 6.0 will become available immediately after the presentation for Nexus 5, Nexus 6, Nexus 9 and Nexus Player. Other “current Nexuses”, such as Nexus 4, Nexus 10 and Nexus 7, can also adopt the new system, as well as the final version. You can only test it on other Nexus devices.

In connection with this situation, there is a power supply, how to install Android 6.0 on this Nexus? In principle, it’s not very difficult. We have prepared a short instruction on how to do this.

  1. Upgrade to Android 6.0 for Nexus 5, Nexus 6 or Nexus 9 from the front page.
  2. Turn off the USB Debugging mode in settings: once again click About, confirm that you want to enable the mode for the device and in the new section click USB Debugging.

Best of all, Android 6.0 is available for Galaxy S6, Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6 edge +, Galaxy S6 Duos, Galaxy S6 edge, Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy Note edge, Galaxy Alp. voiced, scho.

Android 6.0 release date

The release date for Android 6.0 has already been announced more than once - autumn 2015. Perhaps, you will be able to cross the river almost exactly after the release of Android 5, then you will be here.

As stated earlier, Android 6.0 will be released for Nexus 5, 6, 9 and Player. Later, not turned off, they include Nexus 4, 7 and 10. We would like to know. Well, as for other smartphones and tablets, then everything will be the same as before. And just say that Samsung is updating its flagships first, and then some more cheap devices. Updates are often released for top handsets from HTC, LG, Sony and other A-brands. Well, less well-known companies often delay the release of new devices with the current OS version.

Visnovok

The new features of Android 6.0 look interesting and necessary. When energy efficiency is optimized, normal control over access levels appears, a rich-window mode could potentially appear, and so on.

However, you still don’t want to switch to the major version of Android 6.0. The number of changes is approximately the same as between Android 4.0 and 4.1. In other words, we expected Android 5.2 to be released, but Google's opponents thought differently. Food, what will happen next, when Android 7.0 arrives? How are you guessing?
