Simple,
Beautiful, Useful Refined,
evolved UI
Android 4.0 makes common actions
more visible and lets you navigate with simple, intuitive gestures. Refined
animations and feedback throughout the system make interactions engaging and
interesting. An entirely new typeface optimized for high-resolution screens
improves readability and brings a polished, modern feel to the user interface.
Multitasking is a key strength of
Android and it's made even easier and more visual on Android 4.0. Rich and
interactive notifications let you keep in constant touch with incoming
messages, play music tracks, see real-time updates from apps, and much more.
Home
screen folders and favorites tray
New home screen folders offer a new
way for you to group your apps and shortcuts logically, just by dragging one
onto another. In All Apps launcher, you can now simply drag an app to get
information about it or immediately uninstall it, or disable a pre-installed
app.
Resizable
widgets
In Android 4.0 home screens are
designed to be content-rich and customizable. You can do much more than add
shortcuts — you can embed live application content directly through interactive
widgets. Widgets let you check email, flip through a calendar, play music,
check social streams and more — right from the home screen, without having to
launch apps. Widgets are resizable, so you can expand them to show more content
or shrink them to save space.
New
lock screen actions
The lock screens now let you do more
without unlocking. From the slide lock screen, you can jump directly to the
camera for a picture or pull down the notifications window to check for
messages. When listening to music, you can even manage music tracks and see
album art.
Quick
responses for incoming calls
When an incoming call arrives, you
can now quickly respond by text message, without needing to pick up the call or
unlock the device. On the incoming call screen, you simply slide a control to
see a list of text responses and then tap to send and end the call. You can add
your own responses and manage the list from the Settings app.
Swipe
to dismiss notifications, tasks, and browser tabs
Android 4.0 makes managing
notifications, recent apps, and browser tabs even easier. You can now dismiss
individual notifications, apps from the Recent Apps list, and browser tabs with
a simple swipe of a finger.
- A spell-checker lets you find errors and fix them faster.
- A powerful voice input engine lets you dictate continuously.
Improved
text input and spell-checking
The soft keyboard in Android 4.0
makes text input even faster and more accurate. Error correction and word
suggestion are improved through a new set of default dictionaries and more
accurate heuristics for handling cases such as double-typed characters, skipped
letters, and omitted spaces.To fix misspelled words more easily, Android 4.0
adds a spell-checker that locates and underlines errors and suggests
replacement words.
Powerful
voice input engine
Android 4.0 introduces a powerful
new voice input engine that offers a continuous "open microphone"
experience and streaming voice recognition. You can speak continuously for a
prolonged time, even pausing for intervals if needed, and dictate punctuation to
create correct sentences.
Control
over network data
Mobile devices can make extensive
use of network data for streaming content, synchronizing data, downloading
apps, and more. To meet the needs of you with tiered or metered data plans,
Android 4.0 adds new controls for managing network data usage.
Designed
for accessibility
A variety of new features greatly
enhance the accessibility of Android 4.0 for blind or visually impaired users.
Most important is a new explore-by-touch mode that lets you navigate without
having to see the screen. Touching the screen once triggers audible feedback
that identifies the UI component below; a second touch in the same component
activates it with a full touch event. The new mode is especially important to
support users on new devices that use virtual buttons in the System Bar, rather
than dedicated hardware buttons or trackballs
Communication
and sharing
People
and profiles
Throughout the system, your social
groups, profiles, and contacts are linked together and integrated for easy
accessibility. At the center is a new People app that offers richer profile
information, including a large profile picture, phone numbers, addresses and
accounts, status updates, events, and a new button for connecting on integrated
social networks.
Unified
calendar, visual voicemail
To help organize appointments and
events, an updated Calendar app brings together personal, work, school, and
social agendas. With user permission, other applications can contribute events
to the calendar and manage reminders, for an integrated view across multiple
calendar providers. The app is redesigned to let you manage events more easily.
Calendars are color-coded and you can swipe left or right to change dates and
pinch to zoom in or out agendas.
Rich and versatile camera capabilities
The Camera app includes many new
features that let you capture special moments with great photos and videos.
After capturing images, you can edit and share them easily with friends.
After taking a picture or video, you
can quickly share it by email, text message, Bluetooth, social networks, and
more, just by tapping the thumbnail in the camera controls.
Redesigned
Gallery app with photo editor
The Gallery app now makes it easier
to manage, show, and share photos and videos. For managing collections, a
redesigned album layout shows many more albums and offers larger thumbnails.
There are many ways to sort albums, including by time, location, people, and
tags. An improved Picture Gallery widget lets you look at pictures directly on
the home screen. The widget can display pictures from a selected album, shuffle
pictures from all albums, or show a single image. After adding the widget to
the home screen, you can flick through the photo stacks to locate the image you
want, and then tap to load it in Gallery.
Live
Effects for transforming video
Live Effects is a collection of
graphical transformations that add interest and fun to videos captured in the
Camera app. For example, you can change the background behind them to any stock
or custom image, for just the right setting when shooting video.
Sharing
with screenshots
You can now share what's on your
screens more easily by taking screenshots. Hardware buttons let them snap a
screenshot and store it locally. Afterward, you can view, edit, and share the
screen shot in Gallery or a similar app.
Cloud-connected
experience
Android has always been
cloud-connected, letting you browse the web and sync photos, apps, games,
email, and contacts — wherever you are and across all of your devices. Android
4.0 adds new browsing and email capabilities to let you take even more with
them and keep communication organized.
Powerful
web browsing
The Android Browser offers an
experience that’s as rich and convenient as a desktop browser. It lets you
instantly sync and manage Google Chrome bookmarks from all of your accounts,
jump to your favorite content faster, and even save it for reading later in
case there's no network available.
Improved
email
In Android 4.0, email is easier to
send, read, and manage. For composing email, improved auto-completion of recipients
helps with finding and adding frequent contacts more quickly. For easier input
of frequent text, you can now create quick responses and store them in the app,
then enter them from a convenient menu when composing. When replying to a
message, you can now
For keeping track of incoming email
more easily, a resizable Email widget lets you flick through recent email right
from the home screen, then jump into the Email app to compose or reply.
Innovation
Android is continuously driving
innovation forward, pushing the boundaries of communication and sharing with
new capabilities and interactions.
Android
Beam for NFC-based sharing
Android Beam is an innovative,
convenient feature for sharing across two NFC-enabled devices; It lets people
instantly exchange favorite apps, contacts, music, videos — almost anything.
It’s incredibly simple and convenient to use — there’s no menu to open,
application to launch, or pairing needed. Just touch one Android-powered phone
to another, and then tap to send.
Face
Unlock
Android 4.0 introduces a completely
new approach to securing a device, making each person's device even more
personal — Face Unlock is a new screen-lock option that lets you unlock your
device with your face. It takes advantage of the device front-facing camera and
state-of-the-art facial recognition technology to register a face during setup
and then to recognize it again when unlocking the device. Just hold your device
in front of your face to unlock, or use a backup PIN or pattern.
Wi-Fi Direct and Bluetooth HDP
Support for Wi-Fi Direct lets you
connect directly to nearby peer devices over Wi-Fi, for more reliable,
higher-speed communication. No internet connection or tethering is needed.
Through third-party apps, you can connect to compatible devices to take
advantage of new features such as instant sharing of files, photos, or other
media; streaming video or audio from another device; or connecting to
compatible printers or other devices.
Android 4.0 also introduces built-in
support for connecting to Bluetooth Health Device Profile (HDP) devices. With
support from third-party apps, you can connect to wireless medical devices and
sensors in hospitals, fitness centers, homes, and elsewhere.
