Upon looking at the home screen, the OS gives that iOS user interface feeling to a certain extent. Apart from that, there are some new features that stress upon privacy which is something most users having been asking for a long time especially regarding what applications on a user’s phone can access what.

Users, as per shown in the screenshot above, can determine which application is using which part of their phone. In short, users can now know whether their microphone or camera is being used. This is a huge step in terms of privacy.

Another plus point is that if a user does not want that particular app to use any particular data or camera or microphone then the user can easily disable the feature, hence ensuring total user control.

The icons and colors in the Quick Settings are suspected to change along with any respective colors. However, the main icons or most commonly used icons in the Quick Settings, shown in the screenshot above, i.e. Wi-Fi, Airplane mode, Battery saver and Night mode are more prominently known in a much larger size. Though this buries the rest of the icons however they can be extended. This change is considered to be more useful and helpful for particular users who have difficulty seeing small icons.

Furthermore, new and conventional widgets, as shown in the screenshot above, are also on the way which will without a doubt increase ease of access, notification handling and accessibility. These widgets can show recent messages, missed calls and activity statuses even if the widgets are in their smallest size.
Other neat features such as ‘app pairs’, ‘double tap on back of the phone’ gesture, sharing Wi-Fi passwords, a new theming system and emoji updates alongside an app hibernation feature are aimed to come around with Android 12.
