Update: Android 15: Is this 'vanilla ice cream' worth the price?

Only Umratia

Android's latest operating system, Android 15 has arrived. From last October 15, naturally, the update has started with 'Google' Pixel phones. After that, it will gradually come to the phones of other companies. If the phone is bought in the last two-three years, they will get the benefit of the latest version of this Android. The rest will have to be content with the old version. Just like how Google gives a new name to every new operating system, this Android 15 has been named 'Vanilla Ice Cream'. There is no drastic or milestone change in this new system. However, there are some important features that will improve the user experience. Today we want to talk about some such features. 1. Theft Protection Suppose you are walking on the road instead of talking on the phone. Suddenly someone grabs your phone and runs away on a bike. Now if your phone has this theft protection then the phone will be locked immediately. Google has made this feature using motion sensor. As someone grabs your phone and starts running or driving, the sensor will immediately detect this unusual activity and lock the phone. Not only this, if the thief tries to remove the SIM, turn off the internet or turn off the phone, the phone will be locked. This feature can be found in the Security & Privacy section within Settings. Another good thing is that this feature is not only limited to Android 15 but every OS above Android 10 will get its update. Google has promoted this feature a lot. Now let's see how this feature actually works. It's good if it rains with rain! 2. Private Space Just as there is a safe in the house and a locker in the bank, now you will get a digital locker in the phone too. Which is called Private Space. You will also find this feature in the Security & Privacy section of the phone. This will increase the privacy of the users many times. After enabling the feature, you will be able to insert sensitive apps like banking, social and dating apps into it. After that all these apps will disappear. It will not appear in the app list, recent apps or even in notifications. A separate password has to be set to open the private space. Not only that, you can also hide private space if you want! Then you will find it only if you search, the rest will not appear anywhere in the phone. In other words fool proof security. 3. Limit Charging Many experts say that smartphones should be charged between 20-80. That means not letting the battery go below 20% and not above 80%. By doing this, the life of the battery increases. Now this feature called limit charging of Android 15 will be useful in it. As the name suggests you can set the charging limit with the help of this feature. That is, if you have set 80 percent limit, the phone will not be charged above that limit. 4. Screen Recording Indicator The screen recording feature has got a big and good update. Until now, when we record the screen, the entire screen is recorded. In which the above status bar is also recorded. In which things like time, notification icon, battery, tower also come. Also, if there is any notification in the ongoing recording, it will also come. However, this will not happen now. If you record the screen in Android 15, the recording will be done by that app only. Also a light will be indicated on the screen while recording. The most special thing is that if any notification comes at the time of screen recording, that too will not be recorded. 5. Notification Cooldown sometimes suddenly sends a bunch of photos in WhatsApp groups. Due to which the notification buzzer starts ringing. Then the first sentence that comes to mind is two guys who are these? It just won't happen anymore. In Android 15, Google has solved this bug. If there are too many notifications from the same app in a very short period of time, the system will automatically slow down the sound and also reduce the vibration. That means Cooldown will do. According to Google, this feature will work with the use of AI. 6. Adaptive vibration. Adaptive vibration feature means that the vibration will automatically adjust according to the place where your phone is. Suppose, your phone falls on the table, then there is no need for powerful vibration, normal vibration will also be heard. In contrast, powerful vibration is required when the phone is in the pocket. When this feature is on, the phone's microphone and other sensors will detect where the phone is and then vibrate accordingly. 7. App pairs This feature is specifically for tablets and foldable screens. With the help of which you will be able to open two apps simultaneously on the screen and also work in them. You do it in a computer or laptop, exactly the same way. This will make multitasking easier. The shortcut of the pair of the two apps you select will appear on the home screen itself. One click on which will open both the apps. Apart from this, you will get the option to pin and unpin the taskbar in tablets and foldable devices. 8. SMS over satellite This might be the most distinctive feature in Android 15. It is possible to write that this feature cannot be used at present. SMS over satellite means you can send and receive messages to anyone through satellite. Google has given Satellite SOS feature in its Pixel 9 series. In which, during an emergency, a message can be sent for help through satellite. However, this feature is different. In this you will be able to exchange messages through satellite even except in emergency. However, it is not yet clear how this service will work and yes, you will have to pay for it. The details of which will come later. This is about some big and working features. Apart from this, Google has made many small changes within this new operating system. Which you will realize when it comes to your phone. When this Android 15 reaches the masses, only then will we know if there is something really useful and new or just old stuff in a new packaging! }
