The T-Mobile Blackberry has released the Android 6.0 Marshmallow (Android M) operating system for Priv, its first smartphone fully powered by Android. The update is also available to existing Priv users who have signed up to Blackberry’s beta testing program for the handset.
The Android Marshmallow Update in Priv promises users more ways to improve their mobile security by providing new opportunities to monitor and control privacy with its unique DTEK app.
Speaking on the recent developments, John Chen, the Executive Chairman and CEO of Blackberry said “Priv by Blackberry is the most secure Android device in the market and we continue to find ways to further enhance user’’ security and privacy by adding new features with the Marshmallow operating system update.”
Users will enjoy better productivity through enhancements to the BlackBerry keyboard, BlackBerry Hub, BlackBerry launcher and battery performance. Updates to the Blackberry camera will also nurture creativity among users.
Building on BlackBerry’s legacy of security and keeping customer data private, DTEK by BlackBerry has been updated to provide users with more ways to monitor and control their privacy.
Other features include customized personal data permissions, as DTEK gives users the enablement to control what to share and when to share. They can also turn permissions off at any time and still continue to use the app.
