Google announced that early next year 2022 it will officially launch the new Android 12 update designed specifically for devices with large screens, such as tablets, folding devices and Chromebooks, under the name Android 12L.

The company communicated through Android Dev Summit that the Android 12L will have new tools that will facilitate its use on large screens and will include improvements in multitasking.

In addition, it adds a new application programming interface (API), a set of tools that allows external developers to create applications compatible with this platform.

With Android 12L, Google seeks to adjust this operating system to the needs of devices with large screens and adapt to these formats, in order to make better use of its space, optimize applications and enhance productivity.

Greater efficiency

According to the search engine, in Android 12L they seek to improve the interface through a new design of the notification system, lock screen or home screen, as well as quick adjustments of devices that exceed 600dp.

The interface presents a notification panel that is divided into two panels (also its lock screen), intended for quick settings (shortcuts to the alarm configuration panel, WiFi, Bluetooth) and another in which the notifications of messages and interactions are displayed.

Also, Android 12L presents a new task bar to more easily manage applications as if it were a computer desktop, as well as a divided screen in which two applications can be opened simultaneously.

Android 12L is already available in its development phase through an emulator, but Google will carry out its official launch in early 2022 taking advantage of the launch of new devices with large screens.
