Lollipop Android 5.0, the new version of Google's mobile operating system, becoming available for Nexus devices first, and then for the manufacturers who choose to upgrade. Its most visible new feature is the new GUI, something may be lost in part from modifications in the 'software' of others, but there are also improvements to the device security, privacy or autonomy.

Material Design

The new interface uses a new Android Lollipop most striking palette of spot colors in previous editions of the operating system and all details are intentional, courageous and graphics.

With Material Design become important transitions between different screens and applications and compatibility with animations at 60 frames per second makes them much smoother for the user to have a sense of continuity when moving from one window to another.

Smart notifications

Android has also revamped the way the notifications are displayed on devices by adding the ability to be programmed, ie with Lollipop can hide certain ads based on time.

In addition, you can set the priority of notifications so you can choose if you want the missed call alerts appear before the mentions of social networking or email account from work.

With the new version of Android, notifications on the lock screen design change and become flyer style Google Now.

Multi-user and guest mode

One of the biggest obstacles when someone loaned a mobile privacy is hosted on your device. The new version of Google's mobile operating system provides the ability to enable a guest mode. It is not an entirely new system, and some devices already offer this option, but it was a tool included in the Android customization layer incorporating the manufacturer and not a native function.

This update also allows management of multiple accounts with multiuser mode so you can work, for example, with the personal and professional user's account without difficulty, eliminating the need for two different devices.

Battery standby

Another feature of Android 5.0 is the inclusion of the Volta Project, a way of saving native drums. Its operation is based on blocking certain features of the terminals for a last breath of autonomy to the end of 90 minutes.

To prevent battery drain, Android Lollipop shows both the time remaining to full charge and the remaining lifetime of the device to choose when is the best time to load.

Smart unlock

Android Smart Lock is a new feature that allows you to match a device with Android 5.0 with 'smartwatch' Wear Android or Android to unlock Auto mobile devices at closer, thus avoiding having to enter the unlock code.
