JAKARTA Android 15 was just released last October and this system is still limited on a number of devices. Although it has only been three months since it was launched, news about the increase in features on Android 16 has already emerged.

One of the improvements Google will release on Android 16 is changes to the volume slider. Quoting from the Android Authority report, the volume slider will be adjusted to the latest Material Design standards.

In the review of Android 16 developers, it can be seen that the position of the slider will be horizontal. The current shape of the slider is lonjong, almost the same as the slider on most Android-based phones. When the slider is pulled up, the lonjong-shaped blue color will also lengthen.

However, on the latest system, users will see a small dot at the end of the volume to show the highest sound. Whenever the volume is pulled up, the horizontal line in the middle of the screen will also move to the top.

This is a unique appearance that some users may like because the volume position is getting clearer. Although the visuals look different, the volume functionality on Android 16 has not changed at all.

Keep in mind that this change is only seen in the developer testing version and is still being developed by Google. There is a possibility that the feature will not be launched for one reason or another, especially when the developer provides a negative feedback.

To find out if this feature is rolling out, we still need to monitor the beta version launch in the next few months. If Google cancels rolling out this volume slider display, the changes will be visible to developers.
