About Android 11 guides

Google released Android 11 on September 8, 2020, as a successor to Android 10.  The corresponding Android API raises to level 30.

There are many user-oriented new features and improvements in Android 11. Therefore, Android 11 guides are needed for many users who updated the phone or tablet to Android 11, or who purchased new phones shipped with Android 11 (e.g., Pixel 4a, Pixel 5, Pixel 4a 5G).

This Android 11 guides page publishes our latest how-to guides on using Android 11 features. Other features introduced in previous Android versions are detailed in Android 10 guides page, Android Pie  (Android 9)  guides page, Android  Oreo (Android 8) guides page, Android Nougat (Android 7) guides page, Android Marshmallow  (Android 6) guides page, and Android Lollipop (Android 5) guides page, respectively.

The Android 11 guides listed in this page are mainly based on the stock Android.  So they work on all Google Pixel phones (Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3, Pixel 3 XL, Pixel 3a, Pixel 3a XL, Pixel 4, Pixel 4 XL, Pixel 4a, Pixel 4a 5G, and Pixel 5), Motorola Moto phones (Moto G, Moto E, Moto X, Moto Z), Nokia Android phones and all Android One phones with Android 11.

If you are using a heavy-customized Android 11 phone, e.g., Samsung Galaxy S20, Galaxy Note 20, the features may be slightly different. Some settings may be moved to different locations.
