Google is reportedly back using the name dessert for naming its newest Android code. This time the company based in Mountain View, California, chose the name Tiramisu for the latest version of Android 13. The code was discovered by 9to5Google, they saw the codename in the debut developer preview under "Android Version" in the "About phone" menu. The Italian dessert has indeed appeared since July last year. What features will be present in Android 13 Tiramisu? The following leaks are predicted to be present in Android 13.
1. Android 13 release date
Google released the first Android 13 Developer Preview in February. The company plans additional preview releases in March, with the first Beta release in April. Many expect this release to come at or around Google I/O in May, where the second Android 13 Beta has already been released. And with a stable release to users going between August and September 2022.
2. Improved notifications
Notification settings in Android 13 have been seen showing support for notification permissions. This means that Google won't let just any Android app send users notifications in the first place. As you will see in Chrome or other modern browsers, they must explicitly request and be granted access to send you notifications.
3. Tap to Transfer
Apple offers a feature known as Tap to Transfer on the iPhone. When playing songs on iPhone with Apple Music, users can simply tap the Homepod to transfer the songs to the speaker for a richer sound. This feature apparently inspired Google. The company is reportedly working on it for Android 13 according to the mockup shared by Android Police.
4. Easy Access to QR Code Scanner
QR Codes are now essential in this pandemic era, and Google is working to make it easy for all Android users to access them. With Android 13, Google is reportedly working on a built-in QR code scanner that will be able to work directly on the lock screen and be accessed via a quick settings app.
5. Multilingual
Google adds support for per-app language settings to Android. Currently, users can set the default system language used by all apps on the phone. But in this Android 13, Google is working on a new setting that lets users choose which apps use which languages.
