Android 11 public beta now available!!

Recommended apps and home control in power button. Home control is pretty useful in power button.

Can we add Screenshots to power button like it was in 10?

no, I don't believe You can like you did in Android 10. Home control is only in the shortcuts of the power button. Screenshot shortcut is in the overview menu only now.

Dieter from Verge is great on video... It's fun to watch his videos.

Yeah he's hilarious on video!

Thanks - got it

Yep yep absolutely. I'm still trying to figure out how to do these chat bubbles. And whether or not they're going to be too annoying.

I've pretty much decided they'll be annoying - will investigate when all else is set.

Yeah, haha, I know what you're talking about! I have all the chat bubble settings in regular settings and developer settings enabled and I still don't see them. So until they show up they're not intrusively bothering me yet! Like I said so far, Android 11 beta is fast and responsive multitasking through apps rapid fire style.

Been using the preview builds since release and haven't had any issues. I'm liking the new features and Motion sense has been working well, not that I've had issue with it to begin with.

Well, hopefully I'm not jumping the gun here, but ever since Android 10 on my Pixel 3 XL, the gesture for double tap to wake my lock screen for my always on ambient display never worked reliably consistently. I have always just hit the power button to highlight my lock screen. So far nothing would, that features been working! Everything is super fast and fluid! I mean I'm rapid fighting three apps and split screening everything!

Any apps not working with the beta?

 

[eric002]

So far, not that I can tell thankfully...

I didn't have a 3XL but it's always worked for me on my 2XL and on my current 4.

None that I've run into

I installed the Dev preview on my spare 2xl. Upgraded ota to Beta 1. It seems to be running smoothly. I don't have extra apps on the phone at the moment, but will start adding a few.

Yeah it's fast, smooth and so far very clean for the newly styled notification shade. I LOVE the separation of the toggles, and different sections of the notifications now. It's very well organized!

None that I've run into

Correct, none that I've run into either myself so far... Thankfully!

I prefer to leave my new pixel 4 XL on 10 until 11 stable is released later in the year. Test away guys and report these bugs hehehehe

 

[eric002]

Oh yeah, holla holla.. first but I've seen is that when you download an image from the internet, then Try to set it as your lock screen wallpaper, that part crashes.

You can screenshot from recent apps

 

[bhatech]

If it was my only phone sure I would be hesitant to put beta, but main reason I get Pixel every year is to try to Android builds. New software always makes me excited

Nice !!! Hadn't noticed that

Feel super convenient and quick way to screenshot. Like it here better than power button.
