If you ever owned an iPhone phone, you will understand exactly the great similarity between the new screen saver style in Android 11 and the one currently applied on iPhone devices, where when you take a screen on Android 11, you will see a thumbnail image of the shot appear in the lower corner of the screen, and it contains a sign x "is small to dismiss it, in addition to the" Share "and" Edit "options, this means getting rid of the complete notification at the top of the screen.
11. Schedule dark mode
The first appearance of the dark mode at the system level was with Android 10, and with the new Android 11, there is a new addition to this mode, which is to schedule it and automatically run it at the predetermined date, and all you have to do is set the time that you want to turn it on or off every day from within the settings On the phone, we recommend setting the on and off times based on the time of sunset and sunrise.
12. Grant apps one-time permissions
A very important feature when it comes to protecting privacy and data, as with Android 11 you will be able to tell any installed application you have to access a certain permission once, and this time when the application is opened and used, and instead of hurting choosing between "all the time", or Only when I use it or Never, this new feature gives you more control over app permissions,
13. Control your phone with your voice
You will find this add-on in the "Accessibility" settings, and as you can see from the name of the feature, you will be able to control your entire phone using the default feature "Voice Access" from Google, for example, you can post a tweet, run an application, write a message, or call one of them, Or even display your photos, and by activating the feature, dedicated numbers will be added to some specific elements within the interface, for example, you will find numbers. Let me say 1 above the “delete” option or 2 above the “share” option. You in turn and by speaking the number, the command will be executed immediately.
14. Notification log
We have always deleted the set of notifications that we received when you do not know the existence of an important notification, with Android 11 there will be no loss of any notification even if you neglect it, thanks to the "Notification History" feature, where this function gives you the ability to save all notifications that you received for a period of 24 hours, You can check this list during this time, and unfortunately, this feature is not turned on by default, as you will need to go to Settings and then Applications and Notifications followed by Notifications and access to Notification History, and once you are there, you can turn on the feature, to be able to view Notifications history from the same previous interface.
