Android 8 Oreo feature list

Here’s a selection of the Android 8 Oreo features:

• Performance improvements
• Battery usage optimisation
• Notification grouping, channels and snoozing
• New design for Settings app
• Picture-in-picture support for video
• Support for autofillers, Bluetooth 5, system-level integration with VoIP apps, Wi-fi Aware
• Android Go – an OS version for lower-end devices

Also, as I’ve found during recent testing on Android 8.0, there is no longer the option to install apps from’Unknown sources’ – instead, this has to be enabled by app developers via an “Install unknown apps” permission that a developer has to explicitly enable for an app.
