Android 11 is finally released and is distributed as an update for supported devices. After a long period in beta, Google’s operating system debuts with good news for users, ranging from visual changes, performance optimization, new native features and more privacy.
Android 11: learn all about the update
Android 11 comes to the world full of news: native screen recording, balloons to continue using messengers while using your phone, new gestures and much more. The notifications tab now collects the messages received in an exclusive section, while separating the “Silent notifications”, the most recurring or the applications that use very little, to optimize the display space.
The dark mode receives adjustments according to the schedules, fully programmable by the user. There are new navigation gestures without the three main buttons, added to the “new” gesture to open the camera application, similar to the one already known on Motorola smartphones.
Greater control over your data
Since it was already present in the beta version, permanent permission requests are not the only option. Applications that need to access your camera, GPS location, microphone, or personal files will be subject to your approval each time you try to access them.
The same is true for applications that have already received permanent access authorization, but that you have stopped using for a while. After a certain period of inactivity, the applications, once authorized to access sections of the device, will lose their permissions and must be accepted again by the user. The loss of authorizations will be duly notified by the user, who can deactivate this function or accept access to the application in a simple way.

Starting with Android 11, security or privacy updates will depend entirely on Google Play. In this way, Google will maintain greater control over updates and minimize resource fragmentation within the Android ecosystem.
Connection and media control revamped
With Android 11, when you press the power button for a long time, the system will open a menu of connections and functions on the screen. The section will manage the devices connected to the smartphone such as smart wristbands, smart watches, headphones and more, and the Smart Lock permissions.
Control over music and videos has also changed: with the new Google system it will be possible to change the device that displays the content more easily, facilitating the transition between environments or your wishes, such as changing from headphones to speakers.
These are just some of the new features introduced in Android 11. Google will publish more information. The update is rolling out gradually and is expected to hit all supported devices soon.
