The system may not quite working as desired, but now Google has one more year working on

On Android smartphones apps are placed above and below each other, while applications are shown on tablets together. Applications automatically adapt when the smartphone in landscape mode.
A similar feature has been a while present on devices from Samsung and LG, but it’s still not a standard part of the Android operating system. Apple also added a split-screen mode in the latest versions of iOS.
Picture-in-picture mode for videos
Android 7.0 Nougat also includes a convenient picture-in-picture mode . This function works the same way as the YouTube app. It is possible to reduce videos and move at the same time so you can start another app. Multitasking is thus easier, for example because you can start your mail app while watching a video.

The improvement is particularly useful for group discussions in chat apps, because you better overview and saves all notifications can wipe once. It is also possible to open the bundle and on an individual message to respond.
Doze improved and data saving
Doze, the power saving feature that was introduced in Marshmallow is in Android 7.0 improved. Where the feature currently works only when an Android device is stationary on the table, he will also turn into Nougat when the screen is off.

To avoid missing important messages, you apps to a whitelist Add. Apps may indeed consume the background data on this list.
Independent Updates
A great dislike point for Android is that updates are available first only on the Nexus platform. Later, following the example of other smartphones Samsung and LG. Because these manufacturers put their own skin for Android, users should always wait for the update to the software is prepped. Often this can take months or even longer.
Android Nougat be found hints of a better update system. In the file structure and partitioning can see a separation between the Android code and the software that makes the manufacturer. If this distinction is made, it is possible that Google may send security updates for Android without the manufacturer’s software is in the way. Updates would also directly for non Nexus devices become available.
Smaller features and enhancements
Because Android 5.0 (Lollipop) has adjusted the entire Android design, Android Marshmallow did not here much to improve. Android 7.0 will be made small changes, but do not expect a completely new design. The Material Design is precisely focused on the universal look, what will be ruined if Google throws a completely different approach.
Moreover, nougat Android adds much smaller features and other improvements. Thus, the settings screen has been revamped, with a burger menu makes you faster switching between sections. Also under each item status, so you can see which connections are enabled and how it is with the battery or memory. In the overview of your open apps, there is also added a button that lets you close all apps at once.

In addition, the second preview of Android Nougat adds bulk shortcuts to apps. These ensure that you can immediately jump to a specific part of the app, without having to first open it before. This is similar to the fast action 3D Touch allows the iPhone 6S.
