One UI 6 could adopt Android 14’s new partial screen recording feature

Published

on


Android 14 is set to introduce several exciting features, and one particularly intriguing addition will revolve around screen recording functionality. Previously, users faced a significant challenge when attempting to record their device’s screen—a need to halt the operation whenever an unwanted notification appeared. To address this issue, Google’s developers have devised an update to the functionality.

The Beta update of Google’s Android 14 OS has already been released, making its way to the market. This update is not limited to just Pixel devices but is also available for other OEM devices. Interestingly, Samsung’s future user interface, the One UI 6, will be built upon Android 14, incorporating some of its new features. One such feature is outlined below.

Android 14 will allow users to record the screen of a single app

In the upcoming version of the operating system, users will have two options: record the entire screen or focus on a single application. By selecting the latter, only the actively running app will be captured during the recording. Therefore, there is no need for concern if notifications unrelated to the recording should pop up while performing tasks. Rest assured; such notifications will not be shown to the intended audience of the recording.

Recently, Mishaal Rahman shared the full demo of Android 14’s new partial screen recording feature. This feature lets you record a single app without any System UI elements or notifications appearing in the video! 

Regarding the functionality of this option, once we select the “Record a single app” item, a menu will appear, offering us the choice to record either from the recent apps or the entire app drawer (swiping up will reveal this section).

As it is a part of Android 14, there is a high chance of it arriving in One UI 6 as well. If that happens, it will be proven beneficial for Galaxy users. This is certainly a step forward, which should allow users to optimize their time when it comes to making a registration since they will not have to worry about the possible arrival of a notification. As per the expectations, Android 14-based One UI 6 will arrive on Galaxy devices later this year.

Samsung Galaxy XCover 5 is one of the rugged smartphones that is dedicatedly made for using it in any weather condition. It is worth noticing that the company hasn’t limited it to giving tough hardware but also keeps it up to date with its fresh software. In the last major update, Android 14, it has grabbed some new features, and unfortunately, it has also got an issue with the camera, which is causing inconvenience to the users.

Galaxy XCover5 getting a camera issue after Android 14

The Galaxy XCover 5 has received Android 14 and One UI 6.0, and after installing them, users have started reporting about the camera issue. In the reports, the consumers have pointed out that they are not able to use the camera focus like before. Since the camera is the most frequently used feature of the smartphone, its malfunction is significantly affecting the overall performance of the devices.

Due to the malfunctioning of the autofocus, users are also having difficulty making payments due to the autofocus malfunction. When they open the QR code scanner, they are unable to do so because the camera is not focusing on the code.

However, the Korean giant hasn’t yet released a statement regarding the issue’s resolution, despite the fact that the issue surfaced after the last update, suggesting a software update-related problem. Hopefully, Samsung could release a proper update that will update it to the latest version.

Google Get Inspired By Samsung; As It Copies Secure Folder Feature Housed In Galaxy Phones

Published

Is Google following Samsung? With the Android 14 QPR3 Beta 2.1, it offers a new option for private space, which Samsung already offers with the title Secure Folder. 

Google released Android 14 QPR2 Beta 1 in November 2023, which introduced a feature called ‘Private Space’ already housed in Samsung devices as Secure Folder. Since reports have been around for several days that the latest iteration of Android 15 will be dedicated to more security and will bring tons of new features to enhance users’ secure experiences,  one of the awaiting features is Private Space. 

The upcoming Private Space feature will allow the user to install the application in a separate, locked profile, which they can hide at any time. Although this feature has been in the development phase for a long time, it has not yet gone live. Let’s take a closer look. 

The new feature named ‘Lock private space automatically’ will allow users to configure the feature to automatically lock the protected space depending on one of the two sub-options they select in it, which are ‘Every time device lock’ and ‘After 5 minutes of inactivity.’ While choosing the first, the feature will lock Privact Space instantly after they lock the device. 

But here’s the catchable fact: Secure Folder, available on Galaxy devices, already offers this feature, so somewhere it seems like Google got inspired by Samsung. 

The reports are also saying that when users set up Private Space, the feature now recommends them to create a dedicated Google account for using it to’stop data appearing outside private space; for instance, ‘Synced photos, files, emails, contacts, calendar events, and other data,’ and many more. This suggestion and the option to automatically lock the protected space further enhance the privacy and security of private space. 

Upcoming Private Space will offer a redesign setup flow to deliver a better idea of the feature. Since this feature initially appeared in Android 14 QPR2 Beta 1 and then Android 14 QPR3 Beta 2.1, it is expected that Android 15 will bring this feature to enhance the secure experience.
