Android M 6.0 Marshmallow Release Date & Download: Latest Updated Devices Here!

By Ma. Elena| Oct 20, 2015

Google's latest operating system, the Android 6.0 Marshmallow, boasts of new features users should look forward to. There's a better battery manager and improved handling of app permissions, among others.

Android 6.0 Marshmallow officially rolled out on Oct. 5, 2015, Pocket-lint wrote. The OS' Doze app automatically cuts off some of the device's processes when the smartphone is in idle mode, effectively minimizing energy consumption, Gizmodo wrote. The handset will snap out of its Doze state once a priority notification or alarm goes off.

Users also have the ability to deny permission to apps trying to obtain personal information. However, this also means that some of the certain parts of the app might not work normally, Wired reported.

Described as the "key to Google's mobile future," Now on Tap is capable of scanning a user's device for any references to maps, events, names, flights, and albums, minimizing typing information on their mobile devices. Instead, Tap Now will deliver information to the user's own screen, Android Origin wrote.

Numerous mobile devices will be equipped with the OS soon. Listed below are the handsets getting the update, as reported by Pocket-lint.
