Now, Gmail will become even better, with a new Smart Compose feature that will help you finish your sentences in emails, thanks to AI and machine learning.

Google calls Duplex an "experiment" that a limited number of Google Assistant users will be able to try this summer. We wanted to spend time on one key thing that Android P changes for Android phones.

Google released the beta version of its next major smartphone OS, Android P, at I/O 2018.

It was also announced that Google has simplified the Android TV Quick Setup process. While this sentence includes three separate tasks for the Assistant, Google Assistant manages to perform all three tasks efficiently. It must be noted that being a developer preview, one can expect it to be plagued by several bugs. For the first time, it opened up the beta software to users with devices other than Nexus and/or Pixel phones.

The second Android P Wear OS developer preview is out now. At least, it wants to be. You can also swipe up and hold to bring up multitasking or swipe right to switch between apps. I already know that I'm going to be horrified when I see my daily phone stats in Android Dashboard, but a visual representation of how much time I'm devoting to my screen might spur me to set some personal limits on my phone.

"We want to be clear about the intent of the call so businesses understand the context", Google engineers said. That means, instead of the usual age-old back, home and recent apps buttons, you just have the the single virtual pill-shaped home button. It even says "umm" and "mm-hmm" to help it pass as a real person.

Google's likely assumption was that if your smartwatch isn't connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth, that would mean it's not in use.

App actions feature can make a prediction based on usage patterns and the more you use the phone, the more feature will get even more accurate.

A bigger issue is security.

Google is touting Android P as its smartest update with machine learning at its core. If you have a Nokia 7 Plus, Sony Xperia XZ2, Oppo R15 Pro, Vivo X21 UD, Vivo X21, Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S, or an Essential Phone, you can install Android P beta on your device. Android P will come standard with a new feature called adaptive battery, which will conserve your phone battery life by predicting which apps you use often, and others you don't, by utilizing less CPU power.

Android Things is relatively new.

Google became the latest tech giant to undertake such an effort this week, when it announced its upcoming Android P update will launch with a slew of features specifically designed to combat the most addictive qualities of our devices. Google also has their own hardware division and, hopefully, we'll see products like Nest thermostats and cameras running Android Things soon.

The app drawer, as previously, has a search bar in it so that you can search for any of your apps by name, rather than having to go hunting for them manually.
