However, as Android Authority notes, “preview versions are not intended for consumer use as they may contain bugs and shortcomings.” This version is only for developers who want to optimize their apps for Android 16.
For now, the preview is only available on Pixel phones and the Pixel Tablet.
Among the most significant innovations in this version of the OS is JobScheduler, a tool for managing background tasks that provides developers with detailed information about the causes of delays.
Changes have also been made to the vibration API: it is now possible to set the amplitude and frequency of vibration for a more realistic tactile communication when using applications. For example, games may provide tactile feedback in some episodes, and health applications will allow the implementation of massage techniques.
Also, Android 16 DP introduces the Wi-Fi 6 protocol with support for 802.11az, which can provide accurate location determination and connection protection using AES-256 encryption. This should protect data even on public networks.
