Google announced its recent operating system Marshmallow 6.0, which will be featured in almost all the android phones and tablet that is bound to be released in 2016. Marshmallow is the best mobile OS brought out by Google so far. Compared to the previous Lollipop 5.0, Marshmallow 6.0 offers various options and better battery management.
The first and foremost change that Marshmallow brings is the way how Google Now works, IT Pro reported. A single tap scans whatever is on screen and gives you detailed information related to it. This feature works for third party applications too, and most of the time, these information seems to be interesting and beneficial.
Android Marshmallow has also included voice support command targeted towards helping users while driving and with disability, although, it needs to be seen which models of Android makes use of this feature. No specific changes have been made in the layout or icon style. It is designed to appear similar to earlier version to avoid huge confusions.
Android Marshmallow 6.0's app drawer is entirely different compared to its previous version, according to Neuro Gadget. Lollipop 5.0 never allowed users with an option to customize the folder, and apps always follow an alphabetical order. Also, shortcuts are included to get faster access to apps that are used very often.
There is no huge change in the lock screen, but the font used while screen is locked has faced significant changes.
With Android Marshmallow 6.0, the battery performance has increased considerably and offers option to save energy too. Marshmallow is yet to face huge tests, and as of now, the results seem to be promising and will bring huge change in the smart phone market.
