Android 9 Pie vs Android 8.0 Oreo Walkthrough: What’s New

Dismiss Notifications

Dismiss Notifications

If you constantly dismiss notifications from a certain app or program and don't interact with that notification, Android 9 notices.

After you dismiss the same notification a few times, the software will put a red "stop" button on it and ask you if you'd like to stop getting them, because you always dismiss it anyway. Basically realizing something you don't interact with keeps happening, and intelligently tries to get rid of it. 

Basically, Android 9 learns from your usage about certain notifications and stop showing you the ones that aren't important. That's pretty neat. At the same time, I'm getting sick of trying to swipe away a notification only to get this "do you want to stop getting this" popup. It prevents you from swiping the notification away until you decide.

    Nothing re. the app switcher change? Big step backwards IMO. Delaying upgrade until fixed.

      No need to revert it back as this version is more exciting.

      Please, tell me how! The new look is UGLY. Tried downloading replacements but still won’t cover new UGLY icons!
      Btw, I’ve never found an option to avoid these updates completely. I turn my phone off at night.

    Android 9 sucks. The “bonus features” you failed to mention are:
    USB3 connectivity is BROKEN.
    Call recording is BROKEN.
    The volume control defaults to media, so changing ringer volume is a multi-step process.
    You are now BLOCKED from rolling back to the previous OS version.

    Look it up online, there are thousand of posts protesting these problems and yet Google has done nothing to fix any of them!

    DON’T TAKE THE PIE UPDATE!!!! You’ll regret it!

      Thanks Gary, you just gave us a voice unfortunately, Google just don’t care. To add to the list for me is a
      -crappy key pad
      – No flash for the front camera
      – No built in FM radio app
      – No dedicated folder to access personal files like pictures, videos, documents etc. We must not get everything from a third party developer.
      – No app to hide files like we have in other versions.

      Never be the 1st to update, always wait 6 months or more when others have updated to hear the flaws and if any fixes are being released. My theory is if you want the latest UI, buy the newer phone that comes with it installed from factory. When updating the new UI, developers never take into consideration the wear and tear, age of the phone, never fully test it, it is always a rush job and the end consumers are the R&D feedback guinea pigs. Developers these days due to budget and time constraints do a very basic beta test and rely and the end user becomes the feedback mechanism.

        Exactly said Mr.Alex,this is was we want to learn before purchasing any latest gadgets now a days.

    I have the Huawei P20pro. I shall never update to Pie cause they took away the use of call-recording! So now I’m still the boss of my phone and not google-police. I hope they will choke in their pie!

    I’m done with Android, next phone will be a flip phone or iPhone. If Google want’s to make the OS like iOS, I might as well go back to Apple.

      Good comment. Android is meant to be the alternative to Apple. Now it’s looking like Apple. Why not merge Android and Apple and call it AppDroid. Best of both worlds????

    I just found some feedback posts, like here:

    Hi,
    I recently installed the all new UI Android pie to my Samsung s9 plus
    UAE version. Though everything is fine but I had few issues with the
    software which I could share with all of you hope this reaches to the
    developers too.
    * battery drains faster than ever while on idle mode
    * the fast charging in not so effective unlike in the version before.
    * during games the start up is comparetive lot slower.
    * also the system boot up is slow.
    *
    the weather widget is not aligned in the center. Well in fact it was
    aligned before but after few hours it jumped on to the right.
    * most importantly the device gets heated while charging.
    Thank you..

    I started to download the update on galaxy J7 duo, but after reading quite some comments on various websites I decided to cancel that update.
    The question is:
    How to cancel the update once it has been started (I mean cancel and not pause)?
