The latest buzz in the tech world is all about Android 15, the upcoming software release from Google. This new version is packed with features designed to enhance user experience and provide detailed insights directly on your smartphone's display. One of the most talked-about features is its ability to flash information about your phone's health, storage, and more, even before you think to check.
Android 15 is set to revolutionize how we interact with our devices by also including information about the operating system itself. Not only will you be able to see what’s consuming your storage or when it’s getting full, but you'll also gain insights into the lifespan of your device's storage capacity.
What's even more exciting is a feature that would allow tracking of the phone even when it's switched off. Dubbed the 'Powered Off Finding API', this feature utilizes a pre-computed Bluetooth beacon within the Bluetooth controller system, enabling tracking in power-off mode. However, it’s important to note that not all smartphones will be able to support this feature; it requires specific hardware characteristics which might only be present in new or upcoming models.
As of now, it’s unclear whether Android 15 will be available across all Android devices or just limited to Google Pixel phones. But reports suggest that this feature might debut in the Google Pixel 9 series. This move by Google is sure to push smartphone manufacturers to incorporate similar hardware features in their future models.
