So wallpapers, clock changes on lock screen, and updated credential manager which I assume is the latest push for Passkeys.
That qualifies a major version change? It kinda sucks that we've stagnated in mobile OS improvements. You just don't really see anything radically different or innovative anymore.
What would be considered radical according to you, then?
Not that I disagree with you, though..
Significant battery life improvements
Granular Internet Acess Control (Give users option to prohibit apps from connecting to data or Wi-Fi)
Something native like KDE Connect or Your Phone from Microsoft
Something like Samsung Dex
Unlimited Paypal money generator
There are so many things Google could do.
I'm on board with the unlimited PayPal money generator.
For the battery life, honestly I could live with phones being 2mm thicker for 24 more hours of battery power. But people (or companies) are obsessed with slim devices.
Maybe I'm confused on the KDE connect part, but you can install KDE connect on windows.
Dex is cool, wanted this too, I'd probably make good use of this type of capability on the steam deck instead though.
