Android 12 smartphones (Android Snow Cone)

Android 12

— a popular operating system released in 2021. The design was subjected to serious revisions in the 12th version of the Android OS. The new concept of Material You is based on discreet colour palettes and minimalistic two-dimensional objects with advanced animation. The system theme now adapts to the colour scheme of user's desktop wallpaper (Monet feature), and instead of round settings icons in the notification bar, rectangular dice with rounded edges are now used. The designers also reworked the animation system when flipping through desktops, plugging in a charger, and so on. In smartphones running Android 12, instead of precise geolocation, you can select approximate location information, and icons have appeared in the notification curtain that signal that the camera or microphone is turned on when using certain applications. The Privacy Dashboard option reveals information about which programs have accessed the camera and microphone. The NFC can henceforth play the role of a virtual key for a car (Car Key). Another innovation in the system is the call to Google Assistant by long pressing the power button of the smartphone.
