As of now, since we already have a good interpretation of the hardware. While further unhides about Google’s forthcoming foldable tends to focus on the software experience. As per the latest bite is how the Pixel Fold will provide the same Flip to Shhh gesture as on phones for allowing Do Not Disturb.
Here in this ‘APK Insight’ post, the most updated version of an app is decompiled that has been uploaded to the Play Store. These decompiled files are often known as APKs when it belongs to Android apps. In this various lines of codes are observed that prompted the possible future features.
Notably, Google may or may not ever bring these features. Whereas our observation may also go inaccurate, and here it brings out those, which are close to complete.
The pref_auto_dnd_enable_foldable_summary string in the stable release of Digital Wellbeing 1.5 gives the explanation of:
“To turn on Do Not Disturb, make sure your phone is folded and place it face down on a flat surface. You’ll feel a subtle vibration when Do Not Disturb turns on.”
The Flip to Shhh experience on Pixel phones.
Additionally, Digital Wellbeing preps Focus Mode ‘holidays’ work on live wallpaper. Being a first fold, the description is similar to the Flip to Shhh experience on Pixel phones. Since it also makes logic why there’s a need for a device to close it first. And placing a folding screen on any surface is not recommended for long-term longevity.
