Android12L, the update optimized for big-screen devices, is set to revolutionize how we work on tablets and foldables.
Google has finally released Android 12L, an operating system aimed at building out the Android 12 experience for large-screen devices, including foldables and tablets. Even Chromebook users will also benefit from the update, though Google isn’t clear on how.
The lock screen will now use a larger two-column layout to highlight notifications and the clock. Other apps including Settings are also optimized. Google is also making it easier to interact with its OS on larger screens. For instance, the lock screen pattern and PIN controls on tablets are now displayed at the side of the screen for easier access. You can tap the other side of the screen to bring the PIN/pattern controls over to that side.
The update snags Chrome OS’s taskbar to make things easier to navigate. Google is also adding support for gestures on the taskbar to do things like drag and drop to enter split-screen mode and swipe up to go home. You also get a quick-switch gesture that lets you flip through recent apps, and you can hide or unhide the taskbar at any time with a long press.
