More ways to make Android yours
Android Nougat opens up more ways for you to personalize your Android device. Decide how your data is used, the way you’re notified, and what your display looks like.
👉 *Data Saver*
Limit how much data your device uses with Data Saver. When Data Saver is turned on, apps in the background won't be able to access cell data.
👉 *Notification Controls*
When a notification pops up, just press and hold to toggle the settings. For instance, you can silence future alerts from an app in the notification itself.
👉 *Display Size*
Not only can you change the size of the text on your device, but the size of the icons and the experience itself.
Security is at the heart
of all we do
Your safety and privacy are important. As always, Android is built with powerful layers of security and encryption to keep your private data private. With Android Nougat, we’ve also added new features.
👉 *Seamless Updates*
On select new devices, software updates download in the background, so you won't have to wait while your device syncs with the latest security tools.
👉 *File-based Encryption*
By encrypting at the file level, Android can better isolate and protect files for individual users on your device.
👉 *Direct Boot*
Starting your device is faster and apps run securely even before you enter your password.
