Google Play Protect

Google Play Protect is Google's integrated malware protection for Android. Backed by Google's machine learning algorithms, this malware protection constantly improves in real time. Every day, around 2.5 billion devices and 50 billion applications are scanned.

This makes Google Play Protect the world's largest anti-virus system. Google Play Protect is available on all Google-approved devices with Google Play, including the new Tab-Ex® 02 and Smart-Ex® 02 from ecom.

New Bluetooth® Options

Android 9 can connect up to five Bluetooth® connections at the same time. In previous versions of Android, only a maximum of two connections were possible simultaneously. Incoming calls are forwarded to all connected, supporting Bluetooth® devices. In addition, your mobile device remembers the set volume of each Bluetooth® device.

Digital Wellbeing

The Digital Wellbeing application is new to Android 9. With this app, the usage behavior on a tablet or smartphone can be controlled and, if necessary, restricted. The application provides the user with information about how often the device has been used and what the use of certain apps is.
