Google continues to improve the Android experience with each major update. The latest developer previews for Android 15 also revealed a redesigned voice control panel. So what will change in this panel?
Google revamps the volume panel in Android 15
Mishaal Rahman, known for his Android leaks, has shared details of the changes found in Android 15 Developer Preview 2. The volume panel is getting a design change, moving to a relatively thicker bar.
Users will also be able to tap the bar to mute sounds instead of swiping all the way down. This will allow the sound to be turned on and off in one swipe.
When media is playing, the panel will only show the media volume. But when no audio is playing, all five standard volume controls will be present. With Android 15, it will be possible to control media, ringtone, notification, system and alarm volume separately.
Rahman also revealed that new features such as Noise Control and Spatial Audio are being tested with Developer Preview 2. However, he said that these features are not yet available for preview, but are only built into the operating system.
The redesigned sound panel is still in development for Android 15, which is expected to be released next fall. However, the changes show that Google wants to increase control for voice management.
