The most obvious update of the interface is the dark theme, and a ” navigation ” within the slightly revised application. There is a new launcher with recent apps at the top and all the other apps at the bottom in a grid; a new navigation bar with the Home button on the far left and depending on the context, there are multimedia controls or directions or buttons for incoming calls. A shortcut on the left allows you to switch to apps to browse media files.
To complete the navigation bar, there is a microphone for the Google Assistant voice commands and a bell-shaped icon, the latter offers the possibility to check notifications and received calls. The notifications can be viewed through a pop-up that appears on the interface.
