Android 16 is out, complete with live notification updates and new camera features

How are notifications more "live" than they already are?
They get moody if you don't give them enough attention and start giving you the silent treatment.

wrote last edited by [email protected]I remember they had a blog post about this. A big source of confusion is that Uber already had this feature on their notifications so a lot of people thought this feature existed already. But it turns out Uber had to do a lot of custom work to do it in their app, and now Android has made it an easier and standardized API.

If this doesn’t sound like anything new to you, I don’t blame you. After all, rideshare apps like Uber have already been showing notifications like this for years now. Uber had to do a lot of custom stuff to make its notifications look like that on Android, though. Google has basically created a standardized version of what Uber’s been doing. With the new progress-centric notifications in Android 16, any app can create notifications like Uber.

Wow. On moto we just got Android 15.
I mean isnt that normal? Seems like a company responsible for the software used across device mfgers who also has a device they mfger that uses the software, they would have a delay releasing it beyond their mfgered device.

So they automatically switch to silent if I ignore them enough? Finally an improvement.

This is the stable release?
Still would wait for a while so any bugs will be taken care of.

Relatively stable? I've seen some complaints, so I haven't done the update yet. But Google considers it to be stable lol.
