1. Battery Power Optimization

The show stopper for Android N — improved battery life. Building along the same lines, we have the battery power optimization option which essentially means that an optimized app will cease eating battery juice when the phone is ideal.



The options can be found under the battery settings. Though few apps like Facebook and Messenger continue to be huge guzzlers of battery juice, even when optimized.


2. Better Notification Control

So the new shopping app has been relentless in its display of discount coupons, right? While you can’t go ahead and ban the app (shopping is a therapy, remember?), this nifty little trick will take care of your hassles. The next time a notification arrives, long-press on it and tap on Block all notifications.

While you can’t go ahead and ban the app (shopping is a therapy, remember?), this nifty little trick will take care of your hassles. The next time a notification arrives, long-press on it and tap on Block all notifications.



There’s also the prospect of making the notifications mellow down a bit through Show notification silently, instead of outright blocking them. If you want the same option for a different app, head over to Notifications and choose the required option.


3. Data Saver

For the folks who haven’t been blessed with an infinite data plan, you can heave a sigh of relief.

Nougat sports a built-in data saver feature which makes the apps use lesser data by limiting the background data usages.

Furthermore, it also informs apps to use less data on the foreground as well. This doesn’t necessarily mean that apps will completely stop using data, but they will do so less frequently.

4. Arrange Quick Settings Menu

Agreed that the quick settings menu can turn out to be really helpful as it gets things done in a jiffy. Plus, it also lets you customize tiles as per your convenience. So if you don’t want the hotspot icon, you can easily swap it with a different one.

 

All you have to do is, tap on the edit icon on the upper right corner and the canvas will be laid out for you to experiment.

Did you know that the first five icons on the quick settings menu are the ones that are displayed in the quick-access menu? Well, now you know.





5. Enable Power Notifications

Nougat also comes packed with system UI tuner. Once it’s turned on, it opens a window of modifications. Among them, the power notification is quite a nifty feature. It lets you choose the priority of an app’s notification. The notification levels range from Level 1 through level 5, 5 being the most important.

 

Once it’s enabled, you can see the same in the notification menu in settings. By default, the system determines the importance of the app, but it can be changed with just a single tap on the A icon.
