Netizens should expect an upgrade to the share sheet on Android 14 bringing new features and design layout. The Android community is just months away from the release of a new operating system. With each new release comes new features that change how users interact with the system daily.
As the community draws closer to this launch, there are a few new features that are coming to the limelight. One such feature has to do with the share sheet and its new interactive tools. Information about this coming upgrade to the share sheet was made available by Mishaal Rahman in a recent blog post.
According to Rahman, five major tweaks are coming to the share sheet. These features will change the way you interact with this tool on your Android devices. As you await the release of Android 14 along with these new share sheet features, here are all the changes you should expect.
All changes coming to the share sheet on Android 14
With the launch of Android 14, the share sheet will get some new features. Some of these features will be directly noticeable by users, while others will not be so noticeable. The changes that most people overlook will take place behind the scenes.
The major change that most users will notice will be the new row for app action. With this feature, users can get app-specific controls at the top of the share sheet menu. This is an improvement from what is currently available, as with Android 13 users need to scroll to the bottom of the list to access this feature.
Another feature coming to the share sheet on Android 14 is the fact that it will become an app of its own. Currently, this share sheet is baked into the Android 13 system, hence rely on it for upgrades and improvements. But with the release of Android 14, the share sheet feature will become an app of its own.
This will enable it to receive updates independent of the operating system. It is safe to say that this is one of those features that as a user you might not notice. Other features of the share sheet include reselection, image preview, and the ability to share text with images.
These are improvements that you will notice and make use of daily. The reselection feature will enable you to remove or add more items to share even after hitting the share button. As for the image preview, this helps you scroll through your image selection while preparing to share. Last is the share text with image feature, and this brings an ‘include or exclude text’ checkbox that when ticked displays the text found on the image.
All five features coming to the share sheet with Android 14 will change how we interact with the app. At the moment, these features are available for testing to developers via the latest preview. In a few months, the Android community will welcome these features with the Android 14 release.
