Android 15, set to debut later this year is focusing on enhancing user privacy along with several other updates.
Upcoming updates will introduce exciting features to protect users' personal information and online security. Initially, factory reset protection and private space features will be introduced, with additional updates coming to older devices with Android 10 or newer.
Restricting third-party app access

This means apps will need permission to view device notifications, protecting user privacy. Steps like these can make a significant difference in preventing identity theft and maintaining peace of mind online.
