Google recently introduced the new Android O, which will include a lot of improvements. For example, support for streaming high-quality audio via Bluetooth, the ability to use a wider range of color gamut for third-party applications and much more. Apple He still tells us how his iOS the most advanced mobile system in the world, we would still like to see some Android features on devices with a bit of an apple. In this article, we will show you three of the most interesting ones.

3. Picture in picture for phones

iOS has been offering this feature on iPads for a long time. However, we think that the picture in picture feature would not be lost on the iPhone either. Imagine, for example, that you are watching a sports match and something important is happening on the field. You receive an important message that you need to respond to. But you still want to keep an eye on the action on the field. Thanks to the "picture in picture" feature, you do not have to end the video, but simply reduce the area on the screen that is reserved for the video and use the remaining space for the messaging application. Picture in picture can also be useful when learning. You can fill half of the screen with a lecture and use the other half to write notes in Evernote. This eliminates the need to switch between applications, and God forbid, using a pencil and paper.

2. Sleep notifications

It has happened to everyone at one time or another that they received an important notification that they could not deal with immediately. But if you delete it, it is very likely that you will forget about it. That's why Google implemented a feature called Notification Snoozing in Android. This feature simply snoozes the notification and shows it to you when you have time. You can choose between 15 minutes, 30 minutes or an hour.

1. Notification channels

This is the ability to sort notifications into individual channels. This ensures clarity in the notification center and also nestand that important notifications are not drowned out by annoying game ads, for example. Developers decide which channel their notifications belong to, and they can also choose from different channels for different types of notifications. For example, a messaging app might put notifications from a conversation between two people in one channel and notifications from group conversations in another. While it is up to developers to decide how their apps work with notification channels, users have the ability to customize these channels. ChatThis way you can prioritize the application over others.

You should be able to see notifications iOS deserved more settings options. Everything is displayed in one list, sorted by time, and there is no option to filter out certain notifications. It is very easy to miss important notifications. Hopefully we will see some innovations and changes with the arrival of iOS 11.
