Android 4.4 is officially KitKat. And for many Android fans
will not be disappointed at all. There are a number of positive changes and new
features, something current Android users will make them feel at home.
Android 4.4 lets you perform many tasks with just your
voice. You can say "OK Google" - without touching the screen - to
search, send messages and more.
Something that Google is particularly proud of is its
cleaner and more modern design. Indeed, the phone application, music and movies
for example, are much more beautiful than before. But all is appearance, and
ensure that the multitasking brain is much faster.
Even in the event of presentation of LG Nexus 5 , just that
first cell phone Android 4.4 KitKat, Google senior vice president Sundar Pichai
said the company goal for 2014 was to reach the next billion users. This made
it clear that it would absorb the emerging market in developing countries,
where the Android operating system is growing. Now, what improvements were made
to this software to project such optimism?
Important aspects
Android has streamlined its processes to reduce memory
usage, so the operating platform becomes more efficient and quick. For this it
has executed various changes and adjustments to the code system, which is
called Project Svelte. It is to be noted that this improvement is only for new
devices and not for existing ones. So the handset makers will have the latest
version of Android also in its low-end phones .
Google Now
‘Google Now’ is essentially the Android 4.4 interface. It is
a wizard that listens to what you ask and find what you're looking for. With
this app to your smartphone, you can speak for yourself, do searches, get
directions, send messages, get the weather updates or perform any other common
task. No more need to search for a program to execute an operation, simply
ordain loudly to your Cell action you want to perform.
This technology ‘Google Now’ has worked in the U.S. company
for some time, however, it failed the call Knowledge Graph , ie, the enormous
database of this massive undertaking. In short, this tool accumulates
information of what we do, in chips or cards, to have them available to us when
we require it.
The handy personal assistant, as an efficient and diligent
secretary, may be activated under the voice command Ok Google , or by tapping
the microphone icon. At the end of 2013, only 5 had the Nexus function to start
the search option for voice and action in your home screen. For other phones
had to be sought in the implementation of Google Now .
Your frequent contacts have priority in the new Google phone
book. Also, since the same you can do searches for people nearby, businesses,
etc.
Intelligent caller ID
Another useful feature is the intelligent caller ID. For
example, when a call from someone who is not in your contacts, you'll be able
to see not only the number but also the phone will search for numbers matching
businesses registered in Google Maps , which you will get more complete
information about the place where they call you in case of a trade or business.
With Android 4.4 KitKat, Hangouts is the default application
for all the messaging. I mean, your SMS text messages ( Short Message Service )
and MMS multimedia messaging ( multimedia messaging System ) will handle from
the same application. Besides the smilies Emoji be in our messages illustrating
the emotions or feelings that we wish to convey.
Other features
Chromecast support generates high expectations for those who
are passionate about Google devices allowing them to stream music and online
video to your TV.
Another feature is to print from your phone or tablet. You
can print to printers connected to Google Cloud Print, HP printer with ePrint,
printers and other applications with Google Play Store.
