Google Android 14 will introduce a new feature that allows apps to call both the inner and outer screens of a foldable phone.

CTOnews.com November 10 news, Android 14 is about to introduce new features, you can call the foldable phone's inner screen and outer screen at the same time, to achieve some unique application scenarios.

For example, when the user is shooting for friends or family, the user can operate the camera on the inner screen, and friends or family can see the shooting effect from the outer screen.

Google introduced Dual screen interpreter in Pixel Fold, for example, users traveling abroad can enter your native language on the inner screen, and then the outer screen will show others the translated content.

This feature is limited to Google foldable phones, however, and Google plans to add support for third-party apps in Android 14, allowing it to call both internal and external screens.

Google created the Jetpack WindowManager library, a support library for calling the underlying WindowManager API in the framework.

Developers add Jetpack WindowManager to their app as an application dependency, an API for managing split layouts and hinge angles.

In the upcoming 1.2.0 release of the library, a new "Experimental Window API for accessing the rear screen" will be exposed to applications.
