Guess Who Just Released Latest Android OS For Their Phones? by Oladipupo22: 9:25pm On Dec 10, 2015
Android have announced the marshmallow version of its OS and we all are happy! Marshmallow is Android 6.0-6.0.1 for those who don't know the code name cheesy

This Marshmallow version is definitely one every device would wish to upgrade to. It is an improvement on the Lollipop version with its own unique features. Unfortunately, not all devices permit upgrades to different android versions. Some of the cool features that the Marshmallow has are:

RAM Manager – Android has had limited support for removable storage in one form or another since the beginning. With Marshmallow, the new Adoptable storage feature lets you turn your removable SD card option into a more or less permanent (and no longer removable) part of the device

Improved cut, copy, and paste – With Android Lollipop and earlier, this process used symbols to represent these actions, which could be confusing. In Marshmallow, those symbols are replaced with words and the whole module has been moved from the top of the screen to right above the text you have selected.

App Backup and Restore – Isn’t it frustrating to upgrade to a new phone, only to find that your apps aren’t the same as you left them? With Marshmallow, your smartphone, when connected to Wi-Fi, will backup app data directly to Google Drive. Then you can easily restore that data when you move to a new phone or if you need to wipe your device for any reason.

More control over app permissions – All apps require certain permissions and currently you have to say yes or no to all of them. With Marshmallow, you can pick and choose which permissions you want to allow and which permissions you want to block. Some apps may not work properly in the short term since they need to be updated in order to accommodate this new feature. But, eventually, you will get better privacy and security as well as a better understanding of what you’re sharing with third parties.

Longer battery life – Are you tired of waking up to a drained battery? Android’s new doze mode will prevent apps from running in the background when your phone is idle. This means your phone will be as ready as you are to start the day.

Already, Tecno have announced they will allow their users of the Tecno Camon 8 upgrade their Android OS version via the OTA.

So which others would follow suit?

The Tecno camon gained lots of acceptance in Nigeria. An upgrade to marshmallow is a welcome idea
