What novelties does Android 15 promise and what does AI have to do with it

Android 15 will have enhanced security features and innovative user interface improvements. Google aims to integrate Gemini AI technologies into the new Pixel 9 phones, but it became known that the update will also affect older versions and models.

Currently, Android 15 improvements are already available in the beta version for developers and first users. Experts say that Android 15 was designed to be a game changer for users of the operating system.

Private Space

The Private Space feature is designed to protect confidential applications. They will be hidden in a secure section in the application drawer. This section can be locked with the help of identity verification, and notifications will remain hidden even when the space is locked.

Adaptive vibration

Now you can adjust the intensity of the vibration: reduce it on flat surfaces and increase it in places that absorb movement, such as on the couch. The feature is easy to turn on: Settings - Sound and vibration - Vibration and haptics.

Predictive Back

Now it's easier to know where the Back button will take you. Predictive Back gives you a preview of the app you're returning to.

Display settings

You will be able to adjust the color contrast settings on the Home screen: choose low, medium, or high contrast and add a black or white background to text blocks.

Theft Detection Lock

The Theft Detection Lock uses AI and sensor data to detect sudden movements that indicate an attempt to steal your phone. The smartphone will automatically lock.

The developers also offer a factory reset protection function. This will make it harder to use stolen phones - attackers won't be able to customize the device after erasing the data.

Archiving rarely used apps

To free up space on your smartphone, Android 15 will allow you to archive rarely used apps. On the application information screen, you just need to press the "Archive" button.

Automatically turn on Bluetooth

New settings in the Bluetooth system will allow you to automatically turn on the application for security or travel reasons.

Low-Light Boost

The camera will work better in low light. Low-Light Boost is an automatic exposure mode that will make photos and videos brighter in the dark. The feature will also help with focusing and scanning QR codes.

AR content in Google MapsGoogle Maps will launch an augmented reality (AR) feature that will allow you to add information about landmarks, shops, and attractions around you. Arrows will guide you along walking routes.

Google Wallet update

Using Google Wallet will become more convenient. You'll be able to take photos of important items, such as printed tickets or membership cards, to store them in Google Wallet for easy access.

Google Play Protect

Google Play Protect will use AI to detect threats in real time. The settings will also be improved to protect one-time passwords from malware, providing a more secure interaction.
