New features coming in Android M.

Every body excited with the new name: what "M" will stand for in Android M. Any guess? Milky bite, Mango bite , you can comment your guesses  ... But the actual question is what are the new features coming in android M? Lets see one by one .

  • App permissions 

    App permissions
    you now have more control on App permissions. Users will be able to approve or deny security permissions, such as camera or location access, on a case-by-case basis. Currently, when you install an Android app, you agree to a range of permissions, such as what the app has access to. In Android M, you don't have to agree to things you don't want agree to. Instead, apps will ask permissions when you use a feature, rather than at installation.
  • Finger Print Support 

    Is it end of PIN , Password or Pattern ??  may be . Android M coming with finger print password. So if your phone has fingerprint scan than for authentication purpose you can use it instead of password or pin . 
     
  •  Andoid Pay

    Using an open API, Android Pay will be available through Android's own app, or integrated into other bank apps. Developers can use this feature for payment purpose for their app. It can be also possible that user can authenticate using FingerPrint and pay via Android pay.

  • Improved Battery Life 

    In Android M , Google coming with new feature called Dose. It will take care of your battery life. When your mobile is not active , it will stop background processes running. It will improve your battery life twice.
    This comes with one sacrifice: apps don't stay as "fresh," meaning they won't be fully up-to-date with the latest information while your phone is dozing. That's a small price to pay for double the battery life, though.

     
  • Chrome Custom tabs 

    It is for developers, to improve web experience. Now google chrome can be embedded with App only. So no need to go to chrom for viewing web content in any App. There will be one chrome tab in App itself will display the content. You can also use save password, cookies etc like normal browser.
