Android 11 Public Beta is Here: Brave Folks With Pixel Phones Can Try These New Features

It is that time of the year again when the countdown to the next big Android release gets underway. There are new conversation notifications, voice access, device and media controls, auto-reset of permissions for apps you haven’t used in a while, Google Play system updates and more. Android 11 will now enable one-time permissions for access to microphone, camera or the phone’s location for instance, and if you do that, the app must ask you the next time you open it for permissions again. Google is also adding more modules as regularly updatable with Google Play System Updates, which means more core OS components can be updated with the latest security and performance improvements between larger Android updates. That being said, this is just the first public beta for Android 11 and expect even more changes in the coming weeks ahead of the final release of Android 11 later this year.
