Google has made a lot of improvements to notifications with Android 14. The company has now given separate volume controls for ringtone and notification sounds. Google will soon separate the Android 14 ringtone volume from the notification volume.
Ringtones and notifications will each have their own volume sliders. Users can hide notifications during screen recording, and a new accessibility feature allows them to use the camera flash for alerts. Let us know about this news in more detail.
Many interesting features found in Android 14 Beta 3
In addition, users can now clear persistent and ongoing notifications. The feature also has an impact on alarm clocks, where the Google Clock app in Android 14 beta 3 now allows users to turn off alarms by simply sliding the notification away.
A tip on the notification that appears when the alarm sounds when the screen is on and says “Swipe to stop”. This is the same as turning off the alarm, one slide and the alarm will stop.
Swipe to stop feature will work like this
The "Swipe to Stop" action is only for notifications that appear when the phone is unlocked, such as an alarm or timer. The full-screen UI that appears when the alarm sounds when the screen is locked remains the same. It also does not apply to upcoming alarm notifications that appear shortly before your alarm goes off.
These notifications are always removable, and doing so has no effect on the next alarm. Apart from these features, Google has also enhanced the car crash detection feature on Pixel smartphones. Interestingly, this feature also applies to expired timer notifications. However, the timer option does not prompt users to swipe away expired timer notifications.
