Vivo Releases Android 14 Beta Program For Developers On Vivo X90 Pro And IQOO 11
SHENZHEN, China , May 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Global technology brand Vivo today announced that Android 14 Beta 1 will be available on vivo X90 Pro and iQOO 11 smartphones in Southeast Asia starting May 11 . The program gives Vivo developers early access to the latest Android features, allowing them to test new features and improve the compatibility of their apps. The new generation of Android 14 includes several significant UI improvements, including better device resource management, longer battery life, improved security and privacy, and more customization and accessibility features.
Better management of device resources and longer battery life.
Android 14 will simplify background operations on your smartphone by changing the way applications are activated and improving phone resource management and battery life. One major update is that scheduling micro-alerts or actions that need to happen at a certain time are rejected by default, as they can significantly drain device resources, especially battery life. Therefore, regardless of the clock or calendar apps, all newly installed apps in Android 14 must ask the user for this permission before setting a microalarm. An app can do this by asking users to enter their preferences in a settings screen. However, developers are encouraged to carefully evaluate application usage scenarios and choose the most flexible alarm settings possible to reduce resource usage and improve user experience.
In addition, Android 14 standardizes the use of the services provided by reserving the tasks with the highest priority for the user, which helps improve resource usage and battery life. Applications must specify the appropriate types of services provided and state a specific authorization depending on the type of service provided. Developers must therefore clearly define and define the purpose of the application server operation and specify the appropriate use cases for the services.
Greater security and privacy
In addition to longer battery life, Android 14 provides a more secure device environment and gives users more control over protecting personal information. It provides the most secure image selection function for privacy and reduces the need for applications to obtain file read and write permission directly by hijacking the system.
Android 14 will introduce a new authorization confirmation popup that allows users to grant partial access to photos and videos by selecting a group of media files. Also, the user can allow or deny the application access to all media files.
To combat malware that typically targets older API levels to bypass the security and privacy protections provided by newer Android versions, starting with Android 14, a minimum installed target API level is implemented that prevents the installation of apps with API levels lower than 23.
To further protect your smartphone, Android 14 introduces additional restrictions on implied and pending intents, secure loading of dynamic code, and running background operations.
More customization options and special features
Android 14 also improves personalization and accessibility features, such as adjusting regional settings for temperature units, starting days of the week, and how numbers are displayed based on the user's personal needs and preferences. In terms of accessibility, the non-linear font size has been increased by 200%. Non-linear scaling ensures that all text remains legible while maintaining a proportional hierarchy between elements of different sizes.
Vivo actively helps developers adapt and optimize their applications for the latest Android operating system and provide optimal user interaction. Starting May 11, developers are welcome to visit the Vivo Developers website and join the Android 14 beta testing program for Vivo X90 Pro and iQOO 11 devices in Southeast Asia .
