Google has released the final scheduled beta for Android 15, enabling developers to stabilize APIs and publish apps on Google Play. Key features include:
- Package Stopped State: Apps are halted until user interaction, with pending intents canceled and widgets disabled.
- 16 KB Memory Pages: New memory management improves app launch times and reduces power consumption, requiring apps using native code to be rebuilt.
- Private Space Feature: Users can create secure spaces for sensitive information, halting all app activities when locked.
New user experience features include:
- Predictive Back Animations: Help users anticipate gesture outcomes.
- Low Light Boost: Enhances camera performance in dim conditions.
- Partial Screen Sharing: Allows sharing of specific app windows.
- Edge-to-Edge Rendering: Provides a more immersive visual experience.
Developers are encouraged to adopt these features and upgrade to Android Studio Koala for easier app modifications.
