Heads-up Notifications |
In addition to dismissing a heads-up notification, you can now swipe it up to remove it from your screen. It will remain in your notifications tray and you can dismiss it later. |
Quick Settings | You can quickly select different Wi-Fi access points or different paired Bluetooth devices with a new pull-down menu on each tile. Conditional settings tiles that only show if you use the feature - like “Invert Colors” or “Hotspot” - can now be hidden via a long-press on the tile. |
Performance | Improvements in the Android Runtime (ART) lead to faster application launch times. |
Lockscreen | If you have enabled Ambient Display, the minimum swipe distance has increased to reduce accidental interactions. |
Android Security | Includes the updates of Android security patches until 1st March 2016. |
Stability Improvements | Includes changes that fix bugs and improve the stability of your phone. |
