8 Features to Try Immediately After Updating Your Phone to Android 15
Although Android 15 arrived later than previous versions, it’s now available for compatible Google Pixel phones and will soon be available on devices from other brands like Samsung, Xiaomi, OnePlus, and Motorola.
This latest Android update is packed with exciting new features, and to save you time, here are eight must-try Android 15 functions for your smartphone.
1. Widget Previews
One of Android 15’s standout features is detailed previews for widgets, letting you see how a widget will look on your home screen before adding it.
2. Automatic Bluetooth Reactivation
For Google’s "Find My Device" feature to work, Bluetooth needs to stay active. Android 15 now includes a setting to automatically reactivate Bluetooth 24 hours after it’s turned off, so you can easily find lost devices without having to remember to turn Bluetooth back on.
3. App Archiving
Android 15 introduces app archiving, allowing you to delete an app to free up space while saving its data for later restoration.
4. Circle to Search for Song Recognition
A new AI-powered version of "Circle to Search" in Android 15 allows you to recognize songs you hear or hum. Simply long-press the navigation bar and tap the music icon. Once the song is identified, Google will provide information like the song title and artist.
5. Open Two Apps Simultaneously
With Android 15, you can create a shortcut to open two apps in split-screen mode. Just press the space between the apps in split-screen mode, a feature previously exclusive to Samsung devices.
6. Setting a Digital Wallet Other Than Google Wallet
Previously, Android only allowed Google Wallet as the default digital wallet. With Android 15, you can set a third-party wallet app as your primary payment method.
7. Partial Screen Recording
Android 15 enhances screen recording by allowing you to record only one specific app, so the recording only shows activity within that app. An indicator at the top shows recording time and a button to stop recording.
8. Anti-Theft Lock
Android 15 includes a new security feature called "Anti-Theft Lock." This detects unusual movements, locking the device if it senses it’s being taken from you. It also locks the device if someone tries to disconnect it from the internet, even if it hasn’t been stolen.
