Google announces Android 12L, a feature drop for large-screen devices

Google has announced Android 12L, which Google is calling “a special feature drop that makes Android 12 even better on large screens.” In simpler terms, Android 12L is aimed at large-screen devices such as tablets and foldable phones.

With the Android 12L update, Google has refined the user interface (UI) on large screens across notifications, quick settings, lock screen, overview, home screen, and more. For example, Google says any screen with 600 density-independent pixels (dp) and above will show the notification shade, lock screen, and other system surfaces as a new two-column layout to take advantage of the screen area.
