3 fantastic features of Android 13

The Android 13 brings many useful features that make your smartphone experience more interesting. These are 3 of the new features you must try when the new version of the operating system becomes available:

1. Assign languages to apps

Changing the operating system language has always been possible. And relatively easy. So far, nothing new. With the new Android 13, the difference is that you can now change the language for individual applications, meaning you can have all applications in the same language, or you can choose to use a secondary language in some apps. The choice is yours! Google takes the concept of personalization to another level, with a simple adjustment in the system settings.

2. Change and adapt icon colors to your wallpaper

The previous version of Android introduced a new feature in themes called “Material You.” In general terms, the colors of your wallpaper are applied throughout the smartphone. In Android 13, your home screen can look perfect, with the possibility to match the color of app icons with your wallpaper.

3. Assess battery health

An extremely useful novelty for users: Android 13 allows you to assess the health status of your smartphone's battery and provide essential information about this component to the user. With an easy-to-read and interpret interface, this feature includes a circular bar that shows the battery “health” in 4 simple states. Furthermore, it provides important information, namely when it's time to replace this component to prevent usage from deteriorating.
