Let me inform you that the beta version of Android Q has been rolled out to all the Google Pixel Phones. And soon, it will be available to other smartphone brands like OnePlus, Nokia, etc.
Android Q comes with lots of new features. And one hidden feature is Desktop Mode.
This desktop mode is quite similar to Windows or Mac Desktop Screen. Isn’t it a cool feature? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
Now the main question arises here.
How to activate the desktop mode in the latest version of Android i.e Q?
- The first step is to go to Developers Option Settings and turn on the Developers Option.
- This new mode is embedded in the Android Project Launcher. To enable this mode, you need to run the following command in Android Q Emulator.
