So finally ,
Android O is publicly announced and a quick introduction is place on the developer website .
Some important Features of Android o are given below
1)Pixel “powered by Android” boot screen added
The title says it all, the “powered by Android” logo now appears under the colorful G logo on the boot screen for Pixel devices.
2)Stop apps from displaying over other apps
Toggles now appear in the App Info menu that allow you to disable the ability for selected Apps to draw over the top of other apps. If you want to remove the persistent notification alerting you to apps generating a screen overlay, you’ll have to dig into the Android System notifications. Go to Settings > Apps and notifications > App info > Show system (via overflow menu) > Android system > App notifications and flip the “Display over other apps” toggle to off. You can see all the apps with permission to write over other apps by going to Settings > Apps and Notifications > Advanced > Special app access > Display over other apps.
3)Adaptive notification dots
If you cast your mind back to Google I/O 2017 you might remember Google demoing notification dots (which are essentially numberless notification badges with nifty launcher shortcuts) which would be coming up in Android O. In dev preview 3 we saw notification dots with a standard blue color. This time around the dots appear in various colors drawn from the app icon they relate to.
3)Performance and bug fixes
A lot of early adopters have noted several performance improvements and bug fixes in the final dev preview. The battery drain issue that put a lot of folks off the third developer preview seems to have been corrected and the camera launch delay has also been fixed. Multiple other improvements have been mentioned around the interwebs, so hit the comments and share yours if you’ve noted anything in particular. 4)Font, lock screen, and notifications changes
For the eagle eyed (mostly Motobug and Phinocio on Reddit, who shared the screenshots below), there are a few font changes in the final dev preview. On the lock screen, the clock is slightly smaller and the date is no longer in all caps. In the status bar, the battery percentage is slightly bolder and the carrier info and time have been given a little more space on the left and right respectively.
In the toggles area at the top of the notifications shade, the date is now in a slightly less condensed font which makes it a little more more legible at a glance and the card-like spacer between the toggles and the notifications has been removed. The mobile data toggle has also been changed back to its old look (see the icon next to Wi-Fi in the two screenshots below).
5)New system app icon
System apps have received an updated icon that looks a little more Material although it is not implemented in every case, so you’ll still see the old Android head as well (like, for example, in the wallpapers or NFC service). To check it out, just go to Settings > Apps and notifications > App info > Show system (via overflow menu) and scroll through the list. Pixel devices get a circular icon by default while Nexuses get a square icon.
