Here are some features that will come on Android Nougat.

Notifications

Now, users can reply straight from notifications and the interface will allow them view more app information than what they did earlier.  

Project Svelte

Project Svelte is an ongoing effort by the search giant Google to reduce RAM use by apps and system across the range of devices in the ecosystem.

Split-Screen Multitasking

Split-screen multitasking is the highlight of Android N. It means that the screen of the device can show two different apps at the same time. Also, video apps will reportedly support picture-in-picture mode. The system fills the device screen with two apps and shows them one above the other or side by side.
