New Features of Android Oreo
It feels good to see lot many utility features coming natively with this version of Android. Thanks to the team at Google. Now you can have fewer utility apps installed without getting a hit on your productivity.
Picture-in-picture
It allows you to do two tasks at a time. Works best when you are in a video call and may be a web meeting, you could do another task without having to miss anything.
New Notification Dots
Now the App icons will have a dot whenever you have an unread notification from that app. Not just that, you could read them and clear notification without having to open the notification drawer with a long press.

This is one of the features we liked. It can remember your logins if you grant the permission. Autofill lets you log in to your favourite apps super fast.
