  • 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.
