    • A description on how these new changes work
      • New notifications will always be visible like regular notifications even in compact mode.
      • Once that notification was viewed from lock screen, it will minimize to an icon.
      • If you unlock and use the device and go back out turning the display off, now that notifications will be removed only from the lock screen when show seen notifications option is off. (I think it behaves the same with priority notifications too)

Bugs and notes?

• Lock screen clock style with the weather still shows the at a glance and it is also mis-positioned. [fixed itself]
• Some minor button ui glitches
• App icon shapes setting is not implemented but the entry is there.
• Shizuku and SUI might have issues. I’ve only been able to use Shizuku with root. [fixed version]
• If you are upgrading from beta 4.1 of Pixel 6/8 series, this is your first anti-rollback update. try to keep it stable till the next OTA or just flash bootlaoder on both slots to avoid bricking if you mess up the bootloader while doing root mods or so.
• [NEW] Lock screen media player doesn’t animate the progress bar.
