Android 12's second beta brings a few hidden UI tweaks

 The third Android 12 beta is expected to bring a few more Material You design tweaks.

What you need to know

  • Google's second Android 12 beta includes a few new Material You design tweaks.
  • Unlike the privacy-focused features, the UI tweaks are hidden by default.
  • More significant UI changes are expected to arrive in upcoming beta releases.                                                                 

Yesterday, Google rolled out the second Android 12 beta with a host of new privacy features — including a new Privacy Dashboard, app indicators, and new system-wide toggles for the camera and microphone. While Google hasn't announced any major UI changes, the second beta does include some new animations and a few other minor tweaks.

As spotted by Android app developer @kdrag0n, the Settings app in Android 12 can now use the Material shared X-axis animation when switching between different screens. Google has also added a new animation for closing apps to the launcher. It is worth noting, however, that the UI changes are "hidden" by default, so you'll have to enable them manually.



Additionally, the developer has shared screenshots showing all the app icons that you can currently theme with Material You colors. These include Drive, Gmail, Keep, Maps, YouTube, Chrome, Meet, News, Play Books, Family Link, and Translate.

Android 12 beta 2 is now available on all recent Google Pixel phones and some of the best Android phones from OnePlus, Xiaomi, OPPO, Realme, Nokia, Vivo, ASUS, Tecno, Sharp, TCL, and ZTE. If you own a Samsung phone, you will have to wait longer to be able to try out all the new Android 12 features. Samsung is expected to launch an Android 12 beta program for its devices sometime in the fourth quarter of the year.

                           This is what the OnePlus Nord CE looks like (Image credit: OnePlus) he  OnePlus Nord CE 5G  is set to be officially unveiled later this week, and we’ve been given an exclusive image of the upcoming smartphone directly from OnePlus to share with you, so you can see the rear of the handset for the first time. The image above is the upcoming OnePlus Nord CE in its Blue Void color. Unsurprisingly, the new phone looks a lot like the original  OnePlus Nord , but there are a couple of differences. This new handset’s moniker stands for ‘Core Edition’, and the company is stripping back a few specs from the original Nord for this phone and offering it at a more affordable price (which we hope to hear about on June 10). The phone also looks to have three cameras on the rear, which is one less than the original Nord. We’ve yet to learn the exact specs of what this shooter will be able to do, but the fact two of the cameras look similar sizes suggests that one is the main
