Android 12L Highlights
As we mentioned above, it’s designed for large-screen stands for tablets and foldable devices. Currently, Lenovo P12 users are eligible to roll out for the Android 12L beta, and the stable version of Android 12L is scheduled to start pushing updates in Q1 of 2022. Android 12 allows users to experience and easily access quick settings, lock screen, overview, notifications, and more. You can read more about Android 12L in the Android Developer’s Patch Note.
Google says,
“To make it easier for people to find the best app experiences on their tablets, foldables, and Chrome OS devices, we’re making changes in Google Play to highlight apps that are optimised for their devices.” Added, “We’re adding new checks to assess each app’s quality against our large-screen app quality guidelines to ensure that we surface the best possible apps on those devices. For apps that are not optimised for large screens, we’ll start warning large screen users with a notice on the app’s Play Store listing page.”
“12L” is a special feature drop that makes Android 12 even better on large screens. We’ve optimized and polished the system UI for large screens, made multitasking more powerful and intuitive, and improved our compatibility support for apps so they look better by default.”
