Android M Is Officially Android 6.0 Marshmallow

The moniker follows Google’s whimsical naming convention for new versions of Android.

A few months later, Google is nearly ready to release Android Marshmallow to the public.

Android is utilized in nearly eighty % of smartphones worldwide, though many units use older variations for which upgrades usually are not out there.

Aye, there’s the rub. Moreover, you will get four most recently used apps on the menu bar on top.

In IT Blogwatch, bloggers light the campfires.

The Marshmallow announcement is a bit surprising to Android insiders, who widely believed the next version would be called “Macadamia Nut Cookie”. Not without goal, Google maintains that “since these devices make our lives so sweet, each Android version is named after a dessert”, and so that’s been the case starting with Android 1.5 Cupcake.

The launch of the new version of Android will be celebrated with the addition of a new robot statue on the lawn of Google’s headquarters in Mountain View, California. The new mascot looks delicious enough to smother in between two pieces of graham cracker and a chocolate bar. Your device will need to have its bootloader unlocked.

The latest version of the Lollipop also comes with new enhancements for the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge’s interfaces.

One of the most anticipated features of Android 6.0 Marshmallow is the simplified permissions, allowing users to have granular access to different permissions for different apps. While the developer preview of the operating system is in a almost finalized state, Google said consumers shouldn’t run out to install it on their devices, especially since doing so would require them to erase and restore their device in order to get over-the-air updates to Marshmallow’s consumer-centric branch.
