Android 17 Beta 2 vs. Canary 2603

Seperate Wi-Fi & Mobile data QS toggles

Android once again has separate Quick Settings Tiles for Wi-Fi and Mobile data. If you have the current Internet Tile set, that will become Wi-Fi and you can manually add Mobile data.

App lock & Bubbles

Long-pressing on an app will reveal the new App lock and Bubble options, with the latter officially announced last month as part of Android 17 Beta 2. It’s fully active as of today’s Canary.

As part of those two additions, Google has redesigned the menu that appears when you long-press on an app. If an application has 2-4 app shortcuts, they will be hidden inside a new “Shortcuts” menu. Tapping the new expand button will minimize the “Actions.” Apps with just one shortcut are spared.
