Together with mobile devices Nexus 4, Nexus 10 and Nexus 7 with 32 GB of memory, Google has officially introduced the Android 4.2 Jelly Bean platform. Let's look at the details of the new operating system with the old name.
Multi-user accounts
Your personal account allows you to customize your home screen, background, widgets and applications in your own way.
Notification Center
Convenient Wi-Fi switching, adjusting the screen brightness, switching to Airplane mode and much more.
Photo Sphere
Panoramic shooting mode with image capture in several directions (up, down, left, right). The photo is saved in JPEG format. The user can view the image, moving between its fragments. Pictures can be shared with friends using the social site Google+. The developers were inspired to create this option by the Street View feature of Google Maps.
Updated Google Now
The online store received synchronization with the Gmail mail service. Invitation cards for various events, posters, urgent news, the ability to book a table in a restaurant, a hotel room or a flight ticket were also added to Google Now. Google is currently working on the global availability of the above options.
Text input gestures (Gesture Typing)
This function resembles the Swype method - the text is entered by the continuous sliding of the fingers on the touch keyboard.
Wireless connection to the TV
Reflect the screen of your phone on a large HDMI-compatible TV panel using the Miracast protocol.
Widgets on the lock screen
Widgets, which are an integral part of the Android platform, are now available on the lock screen.
Daydream Screensaver
Normal screensaver. As a screen saver, you can use the content of photo albums, the latest news from Google Currents magazine and other content that will appear on the device screen when idle.
Other improvements
In addition to the major improvements, Android 4.2 Jelly Bean received a lot of minor additions, including the pinch-to-zoom feature (scaling images using finger movements) for Gmail, a triple tap to increase the home screen, as well as support for voice output and user navigation with low visual acuity.
