All you need to know about

New Features and Updates

What’s New…• Voice API & Assist API• Google Now on Tap• Android Pay• App Permissions• Finger Print API• Doze• App Stand By

Voice API and Assist API• Marshmallow allows the third-

party apps to access Google’s voice command functionality.

• Now, you could tell Google to open other apps and other apps will talk back as well.

Android Marshmallow Google integration

Google Now on Tap

• ‘Now on Tap' is basically the shortcuts to search for additional contextual information.

• When summoned, ‘Now on Tap’ reads the content of any screen on your phone, whether it is in a Google or third-party app, and delivers information that might be relevant to key words on-screen.

• It’s a huge time-saver as it will save you the effort of having to Google someone’s name, launch a different app or cross-check information.

Android Pay

• Due to inclusion of fingerprint API, and two new Nexus devices equipped with fingerprint scanners, android Pay has arrived.

• Android Pay is one of a number of touch less payment systems including Apple Pay and Samsung Pay. 

Android Marshmallow Security

App Permissions• Some basic permissions -

internet access, for example - are still granted by default, but generally speaking you will be asked to grant individual app permissions the first time an app attempts to access them.

• Means, you are in control of whether or not an app has access to something as critical as your microphone or camera.

Fingerprint API• Android Marshmallow

introduces system-level fingerprint support via the new fingerprint API.

• Thus, authentication for Android Pay and other touch less payment systems can now be handled by Android itself rather than a manufacturer add-on.

Android Marshmallow Performance

Doze• Doze is an intelligent battery

management feature that recognizes when your device is not is use and enters hibernation.

• Where other devices lose an average of 15-25 % of battery life overnight, Marshmallow can supposedly take that down to 3-5%, taking your standby time to nearly two weeks in the process.

App Standby• Like Doze identifies when your

phone is idle, App Standby identifies apps that haven’t been used in a while and puts them into a deep sleep or disabling them in the settings.

• Means, they can’t use system resources, run background processes or sync and access the network.
