Previously users have to permit for the first time and the permission stays forever till the deletion of the app

But in android 11 the permission will be given at the start of the app and will be revoked after closing the app.

Screen Recorder – Android 11 Features

If you want to record something using an Android device, you need to download third-party device recorders, but Android has made this as a feature in the new OS.

A notification on the status bar will show that the video is being recorded.

For all screen size

Android is already available for different screen types but there is a new rising market that is of different screen sizes and resolution of foldable devices.

So Google has pushed its boundary to work on the folding environment with the art of android 11.

Recording Video? Mute Notifications!

Increased sensitivity

If you’re using screen protectors or gloves then it’s difficult to swipe up and down etc. as the screen can’t read your inputs.

So how about increasing sensitivity features in android 11.

Swiping notifications are always there but those persistent notifications can’t be swiped even if you use your fingers tightly.

But now Google lets the users swipe any notification with ease and can be brought back if accidentally removed.
