Android 15 Beta 3 update was released by Google on Tuesday and it brought several new features to Android smartphones, with some being exclusive to Pixel handsets. According to a report, it introduces a new \u201cAdaptive Timeout\u201d feature on Pixel smartphones, enabling the device to lock itself automatically if it isn’t in use for a specified period. Alongside this feature, the latest Android 15<\/a> beta update also brings several other quality-of-life additions, such as a redesigned wallpaper editor and Android safe browsing.<\/p>\n

Adaptive Timeout on Android 15<\/h2>\n

According to a 9to5Google report<\/a>, the Android 15 Beta update adds an Adaptive timeout<\/em><\/strong> option in the display settings next to the screen timeout<\/em><\/strong> option. It is claimed to automatically turn off the screen if the device is not in use. it is currently unclear whether this feature will be exclusive to Pixel smartphones.<\/p>\n

While details about its workings remain unclear, the report speculates the adaptive timeout feature may utilise the front camera and proximity sensor to determine if the Pixel<\/a> smartphone is in use. Depending on the case, the smartphone may remain unlocked or locked.<\/p>\n

The report suggests this feature in Android<\/a> 15 is not working right now. Even if users toggle the adaptive timeout setting, the handset is said to ignore it, preferring the screen timeout setting.<\/p>\n
