Next Android Version Name is Not Based on Sweets, its Android 10 Not Q
If we talk
about the most familiar and easy to use Mobile operation system, the first name
came in our minds is Android. Other operating systems like windows or Tizen both
were not successful in market. Android Operating system reached to global
manufactures and audience with their devices and apps. Android has expanded
beyond the phones to tablets, cars, TVs, Watches and more than 2.5 billion
active devices and around the world.
Why Google Changes the Naming Conventions
Android
developers has launched the many versions of android o/s with new and better
features, security updates to help their users. Naming conventions of the
launched versions of android are based on tasty treats or desserts in alphabetical
order like kitkat, Lollipop etc.. This naming tradition has become a fun part of the release each year.
But problem is that the names were not always understood by everyone in the
global community.
For ex- In
some languages across the world some of the letters like L & R are not distinguishable
due to which they can’t differentiate. It is hard to new users, who are
unfamiliar with naming convention, to understand if their phone is running
latest version. We also know that pies are not a dessert in some places and
that marshmallows, while delicious, are not popular treat in many parts of world.
As a global
operating system it is important to change the naming conventions to make clear
and relatable for everyone in the world. So After android Pie(P) the next
release of android will simply use the version number and be called Android 10
not Android Q.
Google Redesigned the Logo of Android
Google has
also decided to change in the logo of Android to look more modern and accessible.
The design of the logo draws inspiration from the most recognizable non-human
member of the community: the Android Robot. The new logo of android has the head of
android robot in green color along with the ‘android’ text in black color.
Google changed the text color from green to black as green color was hard to
read for visually impaired persons.
