Google posts full Android 4.1 Jelly Bean changelog

Google has posted up a big, bullet-filled page with all the stuff it has added in since 4.0.
Android 4.1, Jelly Bean
Android 4.1, Jelly Bean, is the fastest and smoothest version of Android yet. Jelly Bean improves on the simplicity and beauty of Android 4.0, and introduces a new Google search experience on Android.
Everything in Jelly Bean feels fast, fluid, and smooth. Moving between home screens and switching between apps is effortless, like turning pages in a book.
Jelly Bean features improved performance throughout the system, including faster orientation changes, faster responses when switching between recent apps, and smoother and more consistent rendering across the system through vsync and triple buffering.
Jelly Bean has more reactive and uniform touch responses, and makes your device even more responsive by boosting your device's CPU instantly when you touch the screen, and turns it down when you don't need it to improve battery life.

What's new in Jelly Bean
Accessibility
With Jelly Bean, blind users can use 'Gesture Mode' to reliably navigate the UI using touch and swipe gestures in combination with speech output.
With the new accessibility focus feature, you can move a cursor between controls to maintain a target for the next action or a source for the next navigation event. You can double tap anywhere to launch the current item with accessibility focus.
Text traversal in accessibility now gives you more control – choose to move between pages, paragraphs, lines, words or characters.
TalkBack, a screenreader for Android, now supports gestures to trigger actions, to navigate applications, and traverse text.

Agreed, thanks for this massive post. Apple should see this, google is not saying they have made over 200 changes, they just show every big one, which is still a lot. Unlike the apple, which say 200+ changes, and can only show 7 relevant ones(probably the most notable ones).
And yes, that is actually a very big changelog.

I counted 150.
Bear in mind Google's release cycle is about twice as often as Apple's. Also in this instance I'd say the major changes in iOS pale in comparison to Jelly Bean this year.
Really looking forward to my nexus!

I gave you thanks because someone should appreciate your work with that. Thanks

Yip, I know they(Google) have much quicker releases. Apple's ios is at version 1.6 actually, because they didn't really have any 'major ui' overalls. Also looking forward to jb.

Wow I feel glad to have jumped on the android platform. That change log is huge. Most of it seems to add subtle changes in animations and smoothness of the ui.
And yes Apple updates are crap compared to this.
Looking forward to getting Jellybean

Test out the TouchOne keyboard with Whatsapp and Hangout with 3rd party support

Dear XDA users
We would like to thank all of our users who have tested our Keyboard and provided us with valuable feedback. Without your support, we couldn't have made the TouchOne keyboard the best keyboard solution for smartwatches.
The TouchOne team has successfully secured more 3rd party partnerships, as we are providing a keyboard solution for them. This allows users to respond to messages using our TouchOne keyboard.
The following top rated apps will support TouchOne Keyboard:
• Web Browser for Android Wear: The Android Wear Internet Browser
• Gmail client for Android Wear: Reply to your emails from your Android wear
• Video/YouTube for Android Wear: Video player for smartwatches, powered by YouTube
• Photo Gallery for Android Wear: View your photos on your smartwatch
• Messages for Android Wear: Use this messenger for SMS, Hangouts, WhatsApp or Facebook conversations on your Android Wear smartwatch
• Documents for Android Wear: View PDFs and other documents from your phone or Google Drive on your smartwatch
• Calendar for Android Wear: Complete calendar app for your Android Wear
• Wear Messenger: SMS texting app
• Quick for Wear: Messaging for WhatsApp, Hangouts, Gmail, Telegram, Facebook Messenger, Threema, and Viber
You can use the TouchOne keyboard to reply to Whatsapp, Hangout, and Gmail notifications with 3rd party Apps support. To try this out on your smartwatch, please join our test program of the TouchOne keyboard.

Our vision with the TouchOne keyboard is to be widely used across the Android wear platform and we are working hard to achieve this.
We will be continuing to look for more partnerships and if you have an idea for a partnership, please send us an email to [email protected]
Please stay tuned for more upcoming updates as we are happy to announce that the TouchOne Keyboard will be officially released in two weeks time on the Google Play Store.....

Congrats on the partnerships! :good:This is a really nice keyboard design, particularly for round faces, but i still feel a manual T9 would be a really good feature to have. The text prediction is nice, but sometimes it can't type the words I want it to (ex. "otaku") , which really kills it for me. Another suggestion is maybe to have a dedicated space button instead of tapping the middle. Sometimes you want to edit or insert a word in the sentence you just typed, and ideally you could move the cursor by tapping somewhere in between words, but this just results in a space - so the only way you could insert a word is by deleting everything you just typed.
