New Delhi: In what comes as the first major update to its latest Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system, Google has rolled out the Android 5.1 updated version to supported devices.
The Android 5.1 Lollipop improves stability and performance and offers new features that include support for multiple SIM cards, device protection and high definition (HD) voice on compatible phones.
The company noted in its blog that the device protection feature will keep the lost or stolen device in locked mode until you sign in with your Google account even if someone resets the device's factory settings.
This feature, which is similar to Apple's activation lock, will be available on most Android phones and tablets shipped with Android 5.1 in addition to Nexus 6 and Nexus 9.
The update also provides enhancements such as the ability to join Wi-Fi networks and control of your paired Bluetooth devices directly from Quick Settings.
The Android 5.1 Lollipop version has been extended to devices that includes Motorola's Nexus 6 and HTC's Nexus 9.
