Android M ; new version of andriod

Android "M" is the working title of an upcoming release of the Android mobile operating system. First unveiled atGoogle I/O on May 28, 2015, Android "M" will focus primarily on incremental improvements and other feature additions.[1]

FeaturesEdit

Android "M" introduces a redesigned permission model: there are now only eight permission categories, and applications are no longer automatically granted all of their specified permissions at installation time. An opt-in system is now used, in which users are prompted to grant or deny individual permissions to an application when they are needed, such as accessing the camera or microphone. Applications remember their permission grants, and they can be adjusted by the user at any time. Only the applications compiled for Android "M" using its SDK will use the new permission framework, while all other applications will continue to use the previous permissions model.[1][2]
Android "M" provides native support forfingerprint recognition, allowing the use of fingerprints for unlocking devices and authenticating Play Store and Android Pay purchases; a standard API is also available for implementing fingerprint-based authentication in other applications. A new power management scheme known as "doze" reduces a device's background activity when the operating system detects that the device is not physically handled. Android "M" supports USB Type-C, including the ability to instruct devices to charge another device over USB. Android "M" also introduces "verified links" that can be configured to open directly in their specified application without further user prompts.[1][2]Android "M" also has native support for the 64-bit ARMv8 architecture.

ReleaseEdit

The Android "M" developer preview was released on May 28, 2015, for theNexus 5 and Nexus 6 phones, theNexus 9 tablet, and the Nexus Playerset-top box, under the build number MPZ44Q.[1][3]

SDK and APIsEdit

The Android "M" developer tools are available in the SDK Manager under API level "MNC".
