Android 8.0 Oreo features that will make Apple iPhone users jealous

Late last month Google officially announced the name of the latest version of its mobile operating system -- Android 8.0 Oreo. The company had unveiled the OS in May this year at its annual developers conference I/O 2017.

Using Google's advanced machine learning techniques, Android O will bring the ability to select texts, recognise it as an address, email ID or a contact number, and will show related options. Users can long tap on a text inside the address and the OS will automatically select the complete address.

You can also pin app shortcuts and widgets to the launcher from within the app. There's also a new option to add a specialized activity to help users create shortcuts. The activity is complete with custom options and confirmation.

In May, Google executives confirmed that the company will be rolling out newly-designed stock emojis with Android O. The new emoji set has been in the works for a year-and-a-half and is claimed to be more user-friendly. The company bid adieu to its blog-styled emoji few months back.

Notification channels allow developers to classify different types of notifications that an app can send to different groups based on priority. Users will be able to put these alerts in different notification types and manage them easily. This will help them avoid getting notifications for every thing.

The smartphone using Android 8.0 Oreo can automatically enable and disable Wi-Fi based on the location. For this, users need to keep a smartphone’s GPS switched on.
