Android 11 developer preview – what are the new features?

Linkability

Android 11 brings a new link API to support 5G networks. Thus, developers can take advantage of the high speed and latency of 5G. With this, apps can automatically provide the corresponding high-quality video when a high-quality network is detected.

This new system also adds a Bandwidth Estimator API that allows developers to easily determine the amount of downstream/uplink bandwidth available without the application having to query or calculate their own estimates.

Support for new screens

Today many Android OEM manufacturers have multiple screen devices. Now Android 11 has native support for these two screens. It also provides APIs for punch-hole and waterfall screens. With this, developers can make full use of the curved part of the waterfall screen and does not require a separate setting by the manufacturer.

Hover chat bubbles
