Android 12 Beta 3: Great Work, Google!

Android 12 & Material You

Small disclaimer:

Originally, I was rooted using Magisk, but within the last 2 weeks or so, I decided to remove root so I could use my banking and work apps without a separate phone.
I doubt rooting caused any of the major issues I was having, but it’s worth noting here since it can change the overall experience if one isn’t careful, or doesn’t know what they’re doing.

Part 1: Many, MANY bugs have been fixed.

The biggest 2 issues I was having were with the notification panel, and with the lock screen.

Part 2: Material You is Even More Amazing

As a Graphic and Advertising Design (now graduated) student, finding hints of great design throughout different surfaces and spaces.

Part 3: Dem Animations Doe

I will admit that this is a smaller one, but is one that I’ve come to appreciate immensely.

Closing Out

Overall, even though we’re still in beta, I am super happy with Android 12. I cannot explain how excited I am for the final release, which will include widgets, more Material You theming, and so much more. Google has really outdone themselves here, and I can’t give them enough praise.
