Now, when an application asks you about location access, voice recording access and others. You can choose to give permission for a single time. The OS will give you 3-options, "While using the app," "Only this time" and "Deny."
The brand-new Bubbles feature
Similar to Facebook Messenger's Chat Heads, you can now choose to use Bubbles to use messenger apps for a quick reply. This means, the chat bubble would exist right next to your screen and you can reply quickly without having to open the app or use the notification bar.
Revamped Media Player design
The new design for Media Player allows you to choose which medium you want to hear your favourite on the Notification Bar itself. This means that you can choose to play the song on your Earphones, Bluetooth devices or phone speaker effectively without having to disconnect them.
Customised notifications
Android 11 features redesigned Notifications Bar where you can customise notifications as per your choice. The new feature gives you three categories: Silent, Default, and Priority. So, set your important texts as a priority and avoid other notifications to hide them from you.
In-built Screen Recorder
ColorOS and iOS operating system have had this feature from quite a long time. However, Android 11 will now help you record your screen effectively without needing any third-party app. This will help you save storage space on your smartphone, and it will also make it quite easy for you.
A better DND feature
