There is also news that a new tablet navbar comes with the new update, which moves some of the navigation icons (back, home and recent apps) to either side of the screen.

The other addition is for the “Do not disturb” mode where the ‘Until next alarm’ option has been reintroduced as it was there on lollipop but went missing on Marshamllow 6.0…glad to see it’s back.

I am hoping that OEMs (Such as Sony, Samsung and HTC) who have yet to release their Marshamallow update will go straight to 6.0.1
