Android 16 may adopt Apple’s Dynamic Island-inspired notifications: Here’s what we know so far

Google recently rolled out Android 15 to its Pixel devices, but there are already murmurs about new features expected with Android 16, which is still a few months away from an official announcement. Unlike Apple’s iOS, Google has traditionally allowed OEMs to customize the user experience, while stock Android remains relatively stable and free of many experimental features. However, that may be about to change with Android 16, as Google is reportedly taking cues from OEMs like OnePlus and Infinix and adopting key notification elements similar to Apple’s Dynamic Island.
