After launching the latest and greatest advancements in the field of Mobile Computing at Google IO 2016. Now, is the time to deliver them.
Allo, a social AI messaging app is now available for pre registration. You can head over to the bottom to register for the app.
Google launched its new project called Android Instant Apps which runs instantly without installing which provides the people with wider range of Apps.
Android Instant Apps will be available to all phones running Android 4.2 or later and via an update to the Google Play Services software coming “later this year,” will attempt to bridge that gap. Instant Apps are designed to provide the richer, Android-native experience of an app combined with the convenience and the lower data and storage usage of a mobile website.
When users tap an Instant App URL than the user will be taken directly to an app that runs without installing. Developers who want to offer Instant Apps will have to modularize their apps so that users don’t have to install the entire app just to use certain features of it—this is where most of the data savings come from.
If you’re interested in learning more about Android Instant Apps, please check out the Android developers website, where you can sign up for updates as they become available. We can’t wait to see what you build when your app is just a tap away.
Until now Google has launched:

Google after launching Google virtual assistant, Google Home for house hold tasks and Allo a smart messaging app announced its Duo Video calling app here at Google I/O 2016.
Duo is a simple, fast one-to-one video calling app for everyone—whether you’re on Android or iOS, a fast or slow connection, in New York or New Delhi. Like Allo, Duo is based on your phone number, allowing you to reach anyone in your phonebook. And its simple interface fades away when you’re in a call, so it’s just the two of you.
One of our favorite features of Duo is Knock Knock, which shows you a live video preview of the caller before you pick up. Knock Knock invites you into the moment, making calls feel spontaneous and fun. Once you answer, Duo seamlessly transitions you right into the call.
Duo calls are in crisp HD video (up to 720p) and audio. We’ve optimized Duo to work well even on spotty networks, so if bandwidth is limited it gracefully adjusts quality so you’re still able to connect. We also seamlessly transition calls between cellular and Wi-Fi, so you don’t need to worry about what network you’re on. Finally, we built Duo with privacy and security in mind and all calls on Duo are end-to-end encrypted.

We will be there to cover the whole Google IO 2016 and to let you know the latest happenings. For the time being we have prepared a list of the things that we are expecting from Google I/O 2016. For developers, tech experts and geeks across the world this is a major event to discover all the new inventions made by the giant G.
This is the primary thing that we are expecting from Google IO 2016. Google has released the developer preview of the Android N few months back and they are continuously improving it. Recently Android N also made available for Nexus Player. So we expect full launch of the Android N.
There are lot of features of Android N that users got to know after the initial launch of the device. But, still many things are unknown.
We expect lot more from Android N. We hope that more stuff should be added to the Android N.
There’s a “What’s New in Android Wear” session in Google IO 2016 agenda. So, we expect that Android Wear is going to get some more powers or features upgrade. Android Wear was laucnhed at IO 2014, and, since, two years despite of regular upgrades it has started feeling that Android Wear is missing something.
This is much needed thing for Android Wear. Many users around the world are looking for IO 2016. Do you own any Android Wearable?

In recent past, we heard many rumors that Google is going to integrate Android Apps with Chromebooks or ChromeOS. We don’t know whether they will launch support for Android Apps by integrating Android with ChromeOS or they are working on any other method.
Less than a month ago, someone on reddit caught a fleeting glimpse of a checkbox that said “Enable Android Apps to run on your Chromebook”.
Google IO 2016 is going to provide awnsers to all these rumors.
Virtual Reality is making hits all over the market with some major companies releasing their VR machines. Recently, HTC announced HTC Vive pre and there’s new version of the Oculus Rift slated for launch in some upcoming time.
As per the rumors, Google is also going to unveil the Virtual Reality Hardware and it is going to be less powerful than the HTC Vive and Rift. The event will be the perfect space to release some new hardware and systems for this technology that is getting bigger and bigger in the industry.
The devices powered by Project Tango will be able to recognize places they have been before, such as public places, offices and more. The motion-tracking ability of Project Tango also works indoors, allowing users to navigate accurately in indoor environments such as a shopping mall. The development of the first consumer device with Project Tango is coming to partnership with lenovo. At CES 2016 Lenovo said:
“The new smartphone, powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, turns the screen into a magic window that can overlay digital information and objects onto the real world. Lenovo, Google, and Qualcomm Technologies are working closely together to optimize the software and hardware to ensure consumers get the most out of the Project Tango platform.”
So there’s lot of stuff unknown and we are looking for Google IO 2016 for this.
This was leaked just few days ago, that Xiaomi is coming on with some hardware device. Google will introduce it’s standalone connected home device at I/O, and will name it ‘Home.’ A previous report noted it was going by the codename of ‘Chirp.’
So there’s lot less information available but this is another thing that we are waiting for. This also come under Google’s Project Home with Echo.
The project follows up from Google Glass and continues to focus on the wearable world. Google has even hired consumer electronics experts from Amazon’s secretive Lab 126 to jump-start the new group. According to reports Google plans to release its new wearable devices this IO.
So that’s it from our list and what we expect from Google IO 2016. Is there anything missing? Well, what are you looking for?[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
