5 Exciting Android M Features

5 Exciting Android M Features

There are a ton of Android M features coming with the update though we think there are a few that standout amongst the pack. These features include Doze, System UI Tuner, Google Now on Tap, a new RAM management tool, and some changes to the volume controls. 

Doze will help Nexus 7 users conserve battery life. On older devices, this is essential. System UI tuner allows you to modify your Quick Settings function. If you use Quick Settings a lot, this is going to come in handy, assuming Google brings it to the Nexus 7.

Google's brought back granular volume controls in Android M, a huge change from the horrible functionality in Android Lollipop. And finally Google Now on Tap, which can be seen here on video, is one of the most exciting Android features we've come across in awhile.

These are the Android M features we're most excited about. For more on all of these features, we outline them in detail here

    Not only is this terribly written (we get it, it’s unconfirmed) and in an awful slideshow format that only exists to artificial inflate page views but, actually, it contains no useful information bar a link to Android Police. Congrats.

    And my Nexus 7 2013 has aguare a version of a constant female voice that that set will not work with. You cannot get to the download areas line ,that same line that has the wireless signal not to mention on 2012 version, I think, a night white star on the same line. I cannot use any of the apps on the damn thing (2013). The ability to touch all parts – any part of the xscreen is compromised. If you need to touch or go somewhere on the appscreen you are shot down period. Touch and voice cannot operate on the. Nexus 2013. ,wireless. This device that so makes my 2013 Nexus inopoerable. That voice painfully scrats at you untill all you can do is put it down and give up ever getting my newes. images. It is worthless from a suggestion while I has Norton Mobile on it.From where is not known there is not known and turned it into crap. Touch and the voice if it is from an really absurd version of. Version 6 operating system from Google is impossible to operate. If you are bored I have no phone either to check out and see!

    I have a 2012 Nexus 7 that was having a lot of problems. I did a factory reset and it’s running 5.1.1. It has only been one day but so far so good.

    I have a N7 tablet. Every time I try to update the software, it gives me an error. No explanation why it is not updating. I have performed a factory reset and the little robot still dies.
