Android 17 will have the feature to display apps on the lock screen. About this report Android Authority publishing profile.
Experts have discovered a new Minimal Mode in the operating system (OS) code. With its help, the smartphone will be able to display on the locked Always-on Display (AOD) not only the time or wallpaper, but also the full interface of some applications.
The new option will operate in ultra-low power mode. With its help, the minimalist interface of Android applications will be displayed on the locked screen. For example, using this function you can use the navigator or read messages in the messenger. In this case, the gadget's screen will be locked and the device will not consume much energy. Enthusiasts believe they have revealed one of the first features of the upcoming Android 17.
“In this mode, apps can provide the OS with minimal, AOD-compatible actions that will appear when the device is idle, providing a richer, more user-friendly experience without sacrificing battery life,” the publication describes the feature. One of the first applications to support Min Mode will be the Google Maps mapping service.
Previously, Google conducted a study and found that Android users are better protected from fraud than iOS users.
