The modifications are intended to improve Material You and all of the updated features of the top mobile operating system available today. The top Android 13 features are as follows:
Spatial Audio
This is the feature that lets you feel the sounds to another level. If you are watching the movie at home then you will feel like you are in the theater. But there is a drawback of this feature that it only works with those headphones that support head tracking. If you have a headphone that supports head tracking then you can use this feature.
Change the language of a particular app
The language of specific apps can be changed using a feature in Android 13 if you so choose. You will be able to use particular apps in whatever language your phone supports while keeping your phone’s system language set to a different language as a result.

Smart-Home controls
Now there is no need to unlock your phone to access smart-home controls from the lock screen. Because of Android 13, now you can access your smart lights, cameras, and other smart-home gadgets via the Home icon at the bottom left of the lock screen. Just go to Settings then go to Display then Lockscreen and then Control from the locked device to use this feature.
Media Player
On your phone, the media player that appears when you slide down the notification bar and on your lock screen seemed more practical. The bar that indicates how far through the music or podcast is playing now pulls album art when it is available for the entire background. Additionally, the audio output selector has been updated to make it simple to switch between linked speakers and headphones.
Now scan QR Code quickly
The most popular activity today is scanning a QR code. Nowadays, more consumers choose to pay online. Many of us regularly scan QR codes, therefore thanks to Android 13, you can now rapidly access QR code scanners. In Android 13, slide down the notification shade and tap the pencil-shaped editing symbol.
You’ll now have access to Quick Settings choices. The QR Code Scanner can be dragged onto your panel. You will be able to swiftly scan any QR Code in this method.
Android 15 is bringing a new dark mode feature and Bluetooth audio sharing to enhance the user experience. This major Android update is expected to offer a more effective way of applying dark mode across all apps to address the limitations of the current “override force dark” option available since Android 10.
The new setting “Make all apps dark” under the Color and motion option in Accessibility has been spotted in the beta versions of Android 14. It is expected to be part of Android 15’s accessibility features.
With the new dark mode feature, Google aims to provide a consistent dark theme across apps without affecting images in Android 15. It is prepared to work with more applications, including those that previously did not support the forced dark mode.
While this setting will improve the dark mode experience, Google mentioned that some apps could still have display issues.
Moreover, Android 15 may introduce a feature for sharing Bluetooth audio through a QR code. This would allow users to share their audio with others easily.

WhatsApp for Android is rolling out a new beta update, which enhances user interaction with status updates by developing a new reaction notification feature. Users can identify the new beta update through version 2.24.9.29 on Android devices.
Previously, WhatsApp had been working on a quick reaction feature. The latest beta version goes a step further by providing an option to turn off notifications for ‘Like reactions.’ This means users can choose not to be notified every time someone reacts to their status, which could be particularly useful for those who receive many reactions.
This feature is beneficial as it allows users to reduce disruptions by preventing their notification panel from being cluttered with WhatsApp reaction notifications. But for those who prefer to view reactions at their convenience, this update will allow them to do so without the constant alerts.
Moreover, WhatsApp aims to enhance users’ control over their notifications and let them decide how they want to engage with status updates. This update is still under development, so stay tuned more details will be shared as they become available.
