Android 12 beta now available.

A small but nice feature, a small magnifying rectangle show up when long pressing a word or line to copy. See screenshot. It helps with small type. //uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210521/3a5f8d93393b68911fdcfaf1e653b3e7.jpg

Yes, I agree completely! Maybe it's just me, however an Android 12 beta one so far plus even holding on a line of text to copy paste or edit, with magnifying glass makes it so much easier and it's a lot smoother and more intuitive to press and hold for editing text now as well. So much more improved change. ??????

I have noticed that occasionally that little magnifying glass stays present on the screen until I leave the app. It just shows up as blank. I'm going to watch for it again, and will file a bug report.

Here is a review of features that very well could be in the official release of Android 12.

I put the beta on my daily phone and having no issues other than gmail which corrected itself after a few hours. Everything is working great. I also run iPhone betas and must say google really has it together in the beta dept over Apple as far as stability and things working properly. For a first beta I’m very happy with it.
FYI I see Nova is coming out with Nova 7 soon. I’ve signed up for their beta program but haven’t gotten the download yet. Looking forward to Checking that out.

Go to their discord to sign up and download it from there. Been running it for a few months on Android 11.https://discord.gg/novalauncher

The Nova7 beta has been pretty great actually. I've been enjoying it for a few months.

Can't remember how to sent a bug report, can anybody help please? Thanks, David.

 

[Kizzy Catwoman]

Yes. Just a moment.

 

[Kizzy Catwoman]

Yes. Just a moment.

Here is how to do it. Make sure you have the android beta button in your quick settings. If it isn’t there click on the edit pencil and add it.

When you click that you can click the send feedback button.

They also added an app that you can go to.

Didn't know that was there. Ok.. I think I've learned enough today. I need a nap.

So far, my favorite feature is how easy it is to change passwords directly from the google password manager. Long overdue imo.

Ooh I haven't tried that. Is it in chrome?

 

[swebb]

Yes. Select the check passwords box and your there.

Update. I tried this on one site earlier and it worked great. Went right to the settings where I could change the password and save it to Google. Tried it now on another site, and it just went to the site home page. Had to navigate to settings to change password. Still easier than before. I suspect that it had to do with whether the site considered if I was already, or still, considered logged in.

OK. Worth knowing. Thanks
