Best 16 Features of Android 7 Nougat You Should Know

Marshmallow implemented granular controls for notification importance, but Nougat is taking this concept to the next level.

You can still swipe down a second time to see the full suite of toggles (and even edit or rearrange the tiles), but having quicker access to common functions makes this menu a lot more useful.

Android has typically lagged behind iOS when it comes to staying up-to-date on the latest emoji, but that's changing with Nougat.

The month-long window between Nougat's release and the debut of iOS 10 will mark the first time that Android devices have newer emoji than their iPhone counterparts, as Android 7.0 is using the latest Unicode 9.0 standard.

Android has had a "Data saver" mode for a few versions now, but Nougat makes this feature far more intelligent.

If you're on a plan with limited data, it will automatically restrict the amount of data that apps can use in the background, which should hopefully save a few megabytes each month.
