Android 16 QPR3 Beta Update: What's New?
Google has released the second Android 16 QPR3 beta update, and it comes with a redesigned system settings menu. The new design groups similar settings together under distinct sub-headings, making it easier for users to find their desired settings.
For example, settings related to the keyboard, gestures, and navigation mode are now grouped under the “interaction” sub-heading. This change is expected to make for a more intuitive experience, as users can quickly find the settings they need.
Other Notable Changes in the Update
In addition to the redesigned settings menu, the Android 16 QPR3 beta update also downgrades the recents menu and offers several battery-related tweaks. These changes aim to improve the overall user experience and provide a more efficient way to manage device settings.
While Pixel phones already allow users to search for specific settings, this new design should still make life easier for users. The update also builds upon the sub-headings already available in Android 16 QPR2 for some settings pages, such as notifications, display and touch, and accessibility.
