Google has released Android 17 Beta 3, and with it comes one of the update’s most anticipated features — app bubbles.
Think of it as a cleaner evolution of Android’s older floating window system. You could technically create similar bubbles before using freeform windows, but the process was clunky. You had to open an app in a floating window from the recents screen and then minimize it to a bubble. It worked, but it wasn’t something most people would bother using regularly.
