With the beta 4 of Android 12, Google has improved the customization, including the long-awaited Easter egg and, also, it has improved the recognition of images in the menu of the last open applications. What do you want to download an image from Instagram? Pull down the menu and you can easily save it.
Little by little Google is refining the version of Android which will go to number 12. They no longer have a dessert name, at least officially, but they continue to accumulate a multitude of changes that show the great development of the system
Recent apps view makes it easy to save images
Detect photos and links in recent Android 12 apps
In the third beta of Android 12, Google integrated a tool to share browser links in seconds: an icon superimposed on the view of recent applications, the one in which they appear. all applications the user has opened. With beta 4, the phone also acquires a photos icon.
As they found out in Android Police, the beta 4 of Android 12, which is already available for most Google Pixels, superimposes an image icon when the system detects photos in open applications. For example, just open Instagram and view recent apps, to directly save the image, share it, or send it to Google Lens. The new icon makes this function more intuitive.
Photo detection works with Instagram, Twitter, Chrome and many more apps: it is enough that the photo is in the foreground of the application before displaying the recent menu
This simple function, which requires constant contextual scanning by the system, greatly facilitates the task of backing up photos, especially in applications that do not allow direct interaction with content. It is already available in beta 4 of Android 12, hope Google will keep this quick image edit in the future stable release.
