Android 15 is now available to Pixel devices, providing them with new privacy features, security tools, also improvements for foldable and tablets. Even though the operating system was first launched last month through the Android Open Source Project, it was not available on Pixel phones and tablets, as well as on other major Android devices. Google has finally announced that the new Android version is launching to Pixels along with a series of Pixel feature drops.
One of the key features in the new Android version is the provision to create a 'private space' for an app that the user needs to keep hidden from a third person who gets ahold of their phone. Google has given examples of social, dating, or banking apps. The list of apps kept in the private space won't be visible in the recent apps, settings, or notifications, according to Google. Google says that to access this space, the user has to provide additional authentication, also they have the provision to 'hide the existence of private space from view of the device.
Apart from the launch of the original Google Pixel phone in 2016, no other release was as significant as Google Pixel 6. It introduced the design style that became standard for Pixel phones, introduced Google's own line of Tensor processors, and proved that Google could create a high-quality phone without the expensive price tag.
Google has promised five years of software updates, but the promise had some complications it only assured three years of Android OS updates, although the phone will still see security updates for another two years, the release of Android 15 marks the final Android upgrade the mobile phone will ever receive.
