Google plans to update the taskbar on Android tablets and foldable devices so that it can display recently used apps.

Here's What We Know

The taskbar first appeared in Android 12L in 2022, allowing users to quickly access their favourite apps on tablets. Currently, the taskbar shows 6 pinned apps and 2 suggested apps. However, in the future, the 2 suggested apps will be replaced by 2 recently used apps.

This feature is already implemented in some devices from other manufacturers such as OnePlus and Samsung. The innovation was discovered in the beta code of Android 15 QPR1. It is not yet known when this feature will be available to the general public, as it is still in the testing phase. Apart from this, Android 15 QPR1 may bring other innovations such as widgets on the lock screen and quick keyword change.
