\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you are one of those who likes to try things first then this might be a perfect opportunity for you as you can test-run the latest operating system for Android. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As per this update<\/a>, you get to test its new features including Live Updates and video-editing upgrades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Try Android 16 Beta ?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are willing to try this newly launched then its main requirement is to have a newer Pixel phone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Android 16 Beta, any smartphone from a Pixel 6 and newer should work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You simply have to go to the google.com\/android\/beta and opt-in, using the device on which you want to use the beta. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After  enrolling, the user will get updates as a part of the beta. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once this is done, you are all ready to test all the new features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New Features In Android 16 Beta<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are wondering regarding the new features, it has a number of exciting updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Out of that one seems like a direct response to Apple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, it effectively appears to be Android’s answer to Apple’s Live Activities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Google, it’s “a new class of notifications that help users monitor and quickly access important ongoing activities.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In simple words, it shows things as they progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These notifications “are suggested only for ride sharing, food delivery, and navigation use cases,” Google noted to developers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It appears that notifications like Live Updates could, eventually, prove to be super useful for folks following sports games or other such live events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides this, they have a number of upgrades to the camera and media-editing abilities via Android 16 Beta, which, as Tech Radar aptly summarized, boils down to “improved support for high-resolution video recording and editing.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are looking for the advanced video editors out there then the full details are available on Google’s blog post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
