Android Nougat features at a glance:
Android Nougat brings some serious improvements to Huawei Honor 8 such as bundled notifications, new multitasking shortcuts, Daydream, etc. In the bundled notification, when more than one message is received from an app, it is displayed as a group and the user can progressively expand the notifications. The users can even reply/dismiss to the messages while the notification appears.
New multitasking on Nougat is interesting that users can go to a new app and double click the recent app button to return to the app he was last using. Multi-window mode (split screen mode) for apps is another new experience in Nougat. The users can long-press the recent app button to access this mode. The capability to use two Chrome tabs simultaneously and dragging/dropping text or images (when in multi-window mode), etc. are other additions to multi-window feature.
A few design changes in Nougat bring wallpaper to lock screen, close all button to the recent app list, search all app feature, etc. Nougat will start storing the source of the app installation, ability to set the priority of notification, data saver, changes in quick settings, new emojis, etc. are other additions.
