Highlights of this major update for the Moto Z2 Force include all the Android 9 Pie features, June 2019 security patches and bug fixes. As you might be aware of, the Moto Z2 Force runs a clean version of stock Android, so there won’t be any new features besides what Google introduced with Android 9 Pie. Of course, Motorola will add its own gestures and some other small features to enhance the user experience. For the unaware, Android 9 Pie was released by Google nearly a year ago and it’s sad to see a company like Motorola rolling out the update to its flagship smartphone almost a year later. Nevertheless, in August 2018, Motorola said other smartphones like the Moto Z3, Moto Z3 Play, Moto Z2 Play, Moto G6 Play, Moto G6 Plus, Moto G6 and Moto X4 would receive Android 9 Pie update. At the moment, it’s unknown when these phones will get the update in India though, but the company is promising an Android iterative update, which is a good thing. Android 9 Pie Features Detailed Aforesaid, Google introduced Android 9 Pie last year with much fanfare. The key features of Android 9 Pie include gestural navigation, new recent apps screen, app actions, app slices, Digital Wellbeing, adaptive brightness, adaptive battery, improved Do Not Disturb mode, better notification management and a slew of other features. Android 9 Pie will soon be succeeded by Android Q which doesn’t bring many features to the table, but there are some handy ones to know about. First of all, Google is revamping the entire gestural navigation on Android Q and it now feels like the iOS gesture navigation. Android Q will also bring the much-awaited Dark Mode, which will help the users in saving battery life.
