Android 13 comes with important news for mobile devices, although there are many new updates that have not come with the change, despite being announced, because not all Android functions are linked to the operating system. For some there is an estimated date of appearance, while in some functions the waiting time is unknown.
There are functions of the Google Pixel 6 with Android 13 that have not yet arrived, and the same goes for the other devices that will have to wait to enjoy the news of the operating system.
These are the news that have not yet arrived
There are a good number of new features that have been announced and are not yet available, although we know that they will be at some point. For this reason, we will tell you about some announced functions that you will miss on your mobile for now.
In addition, we must add that Android 13 is not yet available for tablets . When it does, it will come with improvements to make multitasking on tablets more usable. These are the expected changes for smartphones:
- Security and privacy: New panel with an overview of security and privacy, more comfortable and easier to understand . It would arrive at the end of the year, probably with the Pixel 7. A new adjustment would give access to Camera, Micro and Location options, grouped in a new section for better organization.
- Device sync and message streaming: You’ll be able to open messaging apps on a Chromebook in the future without having to install them first thanks to this streaming feature. Devices will sync more smoothly.
- Universal and unified search: Google has worked on a new search option available on the home screen and start menu of the app, which is not yet available. The unification of search functions with Android 13 has not yet arrived, you will only find it if you open the start menu of the app and search there. In the final version, many options that we could find in beta and that are very interesting for users have disappeared.
- Support for virtual spatial sound: There is also support for virtual spatial sound with Spatial Audio, although we will have to wait until the end of the year for it. It is intended for Pixel Buds Pro and Android 13.
- Split screen from image: If you have an app running in the foreground with another running in the image, a small button appears in the upper left corner that, when touched, will split the screen between the two applications.
- Split screen from a notification: In a notification, you touch and hold the notification and drag it to the top or bottom half of the screen while you have another app running in the foreground.
- Guest user news: You can choose which apps to uninstall for the guest user in advance. If you use the guest user, this feature saves you from manually reinstalling apps after the initial setup.
- Data: Up to 7 days of access data would be seen in the privacy panel instead of the last 24 hours.
- Multi-user toggle from lock screen: This feature is very handy and interesting if you use multiple users on Android.
- Bluetooth: You can turn it off if you don’t want to receive information about new nearby Bluetooth devices . The quick pairing menu was removed and did not return to the final version of Android.
- Face Unlock: We have not yet seen its exact operation and we do not know how it will arrive, but they are working on the new function. It is expected to work together with the under-display fingerprint and offer quick and secure access to the mobile.
- Display: Ability to downscale screen resolution to Full HD Plus from Quad HD, available on select Samsung at certain times.
