Notifications appear as a list, like before, underneath. Underneath that is the day and date, as well as temperature/condition. When there are alerts, the time shrinks and moves to the top-left corner. This visual revamp starts at the lockscreen with a large two-line clock at the center of the screen when you have no notifications. The other big highlights are more privacy and security controls. The new Material You design language is a defining aspect of this Android version that spans every screen and interaction.

After three developer previews, five betas, and the AOSP release, Android 12 is ready to launch on Pixel phones as Google’s biggest mobile OS release in recent memory.
