Google has announced the addition of a series of new features to Android, including updates to Google Maps, Android Auto, and the Messages app.
Google is bringing a range of extra features to Android, and you don’t have to wait for Android 12 to get them. The company announced a series of features across the Android system, with six main updates, so there’s a little something here for everyone. The new features are starting to become available now, however, they’re coming out as part of separate app updates or Android updates, so you might get some before others. First up is Google’s new Password Checkup feature on Android. Android can already store your passwords to more easily enter later down the line, and combine those passwords with those you store in Chrome. Now, like in Chrome, Android will tell you if one of your passwords has been exposed as part of a data breach. And, it will check new passwords against a list of known compromised passwords, and alert you so that you can use a different password instead.
