Google's Android 17 Beta has introduced an expanded "bubble" feature that allows users to activate the bubble format for nearly all applications, enhancing multitasking capabilities. This feature can be enabled by long-pressing an app icon and selecting the bubble option, allowing apps to appear in floating bubbles that can be resized and repositioned. Users can manage multiple bubble apps simultaneously. The update is being distributed to testers on devices including the Pixel 10, Pixel 6 series, Pixel Fold, and Pixel Tablet, with a final release expected in June. Samsung is also expected to integrate this feature into its One UI for enhanced multitasking on Galaxy devices.

Android 16 is rumored to introduce new features, including Priority Modes, which enhance the Do Not Disturb functionality by allowing users to create multiple custom modes with unique settings and icons. Users can schedule these modes for specific times and control which notifications can interrupt them. Additionally, Priority Modes can alter the device's visual experience by disabling the always-on display, changing the screen to black and white, and dimming the wallpaper. Another potential feature is a 'Bubble' option that enables apps to be launched in a bubble format for improved multitasking. This feature is expected to be mandatory for app developers, though it is not fully operational in the current Android 15 beta. The official launch timeline for these features is uncertain, but they may debut with Android 16.
