In the last period, daily news regarding Android 12. Although many devices have not yet received the update to version 11, we are starting to talk about the next one. Why? Because the source codes tell a lot and the developers are always looking for news. Among the many that we will see with the next release, that it will start next September according to the latest rumors, there will also be one smart auto rotation. What will it consist of? Let's go see the details uncovered by the team of 9to5google.
A special automatic rotation for Android 12: it will automatically understand the position of our head and adjust accordingly
As reported by 9to5google, smartphones with Android 12 may receive an updated automatic rotation function. Android smartphones can take advantage of the automatic rotation for a long time now, but this doesn't always work the way users would like. According to the information we have Google developers are working for improve this functionality. That's how.
If we use the smartphone in the supine position and turn to one side, when the automatic rotation function is active, the image may take a horizontal orientation. Of course, we can always turn off the feature, but Android 12 will have a feature of improved automatic rotation based on the position of users' faces. The smartphone will use the front camera to check if the user is looking at the screen and, if so, which way their head is turned. Just depending on the position of the head the screen will turn.
For obvious reasons related to the speech privacy, this camera check will be performed entirely on the device and will not save or send photos anywhere. The source suggests that all Android 12 smartphones will eventually receive this feature, but Google may initially make it exclusive to its Pixel smartphones. Not bad this feature, right?
