The
most recent leak suggests that Google is all set to announce its
upcoming mobile OS iteration, Android M, at the I/O to be held later
this month. Now, a Bloomberg report highlights that Android M will bring
more ‘privacy controls’ to users.
The
new iteration of Android will reportedly offer users more detailed
choices over what data apps can access such as photos, contacts, and
location data. This move closely follows Apple that recently added
similar security features.
A
ZDnet report adds that ‘the change would give a user more granular
controls over their data and how its used, adding that the option has
been present in the past — albeit hidden for developers’ use only’.
Though
Google hasn’t officially announced Android M, a session called ‘Android
for Work Update’ said, “Android M is bringing the power of Android to
all kinds of workplaces.” Google is known to name its mobile OS versions
in alphabetical order, so it’s quite likely that after Lollipop, the
next name will begin with the letter ‘M’. Google quickly pulled out the
description, but not before ArsTechnica got its hands on a screenshot.
From Muffin to Malai barfi, the guess game for the name has already begun.
