Well, Google did something totally different this year with their OS Android. We all are addicted to our smartphones, isn’t it?.

The feature is one of several that Google is combining into a theme it calls “Digital Well Being.” Presumably, it didn’t want to borrow “Time well spent,” the buzzy catchphrase popularized by ex-Google “design ethicist” Tristan Harris and adopted (or better: co-opted) by Mark Zuckerberg.

Google did not announce anything about the “p” , for what it stands for. Previous year it was all about the internal updates, where as Android P concentrates more on user features. As per the reviews, and sneak peaks Android P is considered to the biggest update ever released for all Android smartphones.
