It's more streamlined and efficient, so games and generalperformance are better.

Apps will install extremely quickly, and they'll take up less storage than they do now.

Apps you haven't used in a while will close automatically in the
Recents menu, which makes it less cluttered.

There's a Clear All button at the top of the Recents menu to close all your running apps in one go if you want to start fresh.

Quick Switch lets double tap the square Recents button to switch back to the previous app you wereusing and then back again to theapp you were using quickly.

Use two apps at the same time with Multi-Window.


Multi-window also works in landscape mode.

Reply to messages straight from the notifications shade.

Control which apps show you notifications by long-tapping on the notification itself. It's faster than going through the Settings.

Security updates will be downloaded automatically, but you'll have to turn your phone off and back on for them

to install.

You'll never see this again!

You'll be able to run Google's new virtual reality platform with a VR headset if your phone is powerful enough. This is the biggest new feature Google announced.

An improved "Doze" mode that will put your phone in a semi-sleep mode when the screen is off for outstanding battery life.

Enjoy!
