Google is presently testing Android 14 potentially new feature, which allows users to clone apps to log in to separate identities simultaneously if they wish to. Although a comparable feature is currently accessible on the handsets of large phone makers like Samsung, Google is purportedly now working on it too. Google looks to be working on a clone apps feature for Android 14, as per a recent report. The renowned tech firm is apparently testing it out after other phone makers presented it to their users. XDA Developers highlights in its report that the search giant looks to be discreetly creating a new feature on Android.

The leaked "Cloned Apps" interface indicates that it should let users "build a second instance of an app." This permits people to "use two accounts at the same time." It is worth noting that the new feature is available beneath the "Settings" app. It sits along with other app preferences like "Default applications" and "Screen Time." How Cloning Apps Work And as such, it might not take long before Android starts allowing users to make a clone of an app, which should let users sign in to two accounts at once. If you are handling many accounts, some apps could make it harder for you to move from one another. Most systems these days enable logging in to more than a single account, while some limit it to a set number. That is where cloning apps enter the picture.

So if you opt to stick to a single account, you may uninstall the second app straight immediately. Android 14 Better Support for Foldables According to the reports, Google is also testing enhanced Android 14 support for foldable devices and other larger displays. It contains a new maximum font scale of up to 200%. However, it is worth mentioning that the search giant has yet to announce such a new function. So it remains to be seen if these options are actually rolling out once Android 14 appears. The tech giant might continue its development with major advances along the way. However, Google can decide to scrap them later on. So we could only tell once the renowned corporation started serving out the all-new Android 14 to its users.
