I've been using the Android 14 Beta for a while now so nothing really new to me for now, but what I liked since the beta is that the battery life got better.

The ability to give apps permissions on a per-file basis is also cool, although it made some apps unusable probably because they aren't supporting that right now (but maybe that changed or will change soon now that the stable release is out).

So what are the changes you noticed the most and which ones do you like or hate so far?

Things I've noted:

  • My news app now crashes on launch, making it useless. Goes to show what happens when you ignore repeated warnings about making your app compatible with the new OS update.
  • At a glance can finally show both weather information and a notification at the same time. We finally have the technology!
  • The back gesture indicator looks a little bit different. I have no strong opinions on it, maybe slightly better looking.
  • The color scheme seems a little bit darker, maybe? Again, no strong opinions.
