Android 15’s second beta release lets users lock down access to private apps


Android 15 beta 2 is great for those who’d like to hide apps.

It’s got some cool new features, like the ability to now hide a collection of apps inside a “private space,” customizable vibrations so you can notice different types of notifications just by feeling, and also richer widget previews. Now users can set distinguishing vibes for a Slack or Teams message versus an Uber Eats delivery update without taking their phone out of their pocket. The newer version works on more devices, too, including foldables and tablets from manufacturers like Lenovo, Realme, Honor, Xiaomi, Oppo, Nothing, and others.
