Android-x86 Project Enables PC Android 7.0 Nougat Preview For Dev

Sources say Samsung may release its first batch of updates during the last quarter of the year, with the Galaxy Note 7 as the first device to be updated. What does that mean? The software is based on Google’s Android Open Source Project (AOSP) code and is still a work in progress.

You can update the app here for Android. That said, some of Nougat’s key features, such as split-screen, multi-window mode works, allowing you to interact with two apps on the screen at once. To download a disc image, you can head over to Geek Til it Hertz.

Looks like “geektilithertz” – a developer who specializes in Android for other platforms – is getting a lot of airtime these days, and this because of his development projects bringing Android to the Raspberry Pi and x86 platforms, among others. If you do not know about the Remix OS then do not worry. Remix OS makes things interesting with keyboard and mouse optimizations among other things. This time, the developer is back with the newly released Android Nougat, now designed specifically for x86 platforms like netbooks, laptops, and desktop PCs. The aforementioned multitasking features are perhaps the most important, however the OS also brings improved notifications, and customizable quick settings.
