		</div><p>Google has unveiled the next version of its Android mobile operating system, named Android 8.0 Oreo.</p>
<p>The software, which will be available as a free update to users of smartphones including by Samsung, HTC and Huawei, has been labelled &#8220;smarter, faster and more powerful than ever&#8221; by Google.</p>
<p>A picture-in-picture mode will be introduced, enabling users to view two apps at the same time.</p>
<p>New notification dots have also been added which will flag when an app has an alert waiting to be addressed.</p>
<p>The name &#8211; 8.0 Oreo &#8211; follows Google&#8217;s tradition of naming each new version of Android after &#8220;sweet treats&#8221;, and follows 2016&#8217;s 7.0 Nougat.</p>
<p>Android&#8217;s Sameer Samat said: <i>&#8220;Today, we are officially introducing Android 8.0 Oreo, the latest release of the platform &#8211; and it&#8217;s smarter, faster and more powerful than ever.</p>
<p>&#8220;It comes with new features like picture-in-picture and Autofill to help you navigate tasks seamlessly.</p>
<p>&#8220;Plus, it&#8217;s got stronger security protections and speed improvements that keep you safe and moving at light speed. When you&#8217;re on your next adventure, Android Oreo is the superhero to have by your side.&#8221;</i></p>
<p>Google said 8.0 Oreo will also feature a new instant apps feature that will enable users to access apps without having to download them, while security settings will automatically scan a user&#8217;s device for malicious apps and remove them.</p>
<p>The tech giant said battery life on Android smartphones should increase with Oreo, as the software will cut down on app activity in the background.</p>
<p>Google said the new software will begin rolling out to users &#8220;soon&#8221;, and is likely to be joined by a new version of Google&#8217;s Pixel smartphone, which is heavily rumoured to be launching in the autumn.</p>
