Android 11 is gradually preparing its way thanks to the launch of different betas that add new functions and above all, correct different errors that may be present. As a result of all the feedback generated by those who download and install the beta version, not all Android 11 news seems to be well received.
And it is the case of the possibility of contemplating the cover of the song that we are listening to when the lock screen is activated. A possibility that will pass to better life at the moment that Android 11 begins its deployment among the terminals compatible with the new version of Google’s mobile operating system.
Cover yes, cover no
As reported by 9to5google, the company will add a change when it comes to offering information on the lock screen, this time related to the song we are listening to.
If already with the launch of Android 10 the cover that was shown received a change by applying a blur effect to it, now with Android 11, the illustration will be completely lost to be left with only information in the form of text. Information that is echoed by users in Reddit threads like this and which was found by Google in the Issue Tracker.
Apparently, one of the reasons behind this absence is the use of biometric unlocking systems, be it a fingerprint sensor, facial recognition …), increasingly common technologies in all types of terminals.
This change has motivated user complaints, some of whom do not welcome the disappearance of this addition. Remember that in its day we saw how the cover could be removed on the lock screen when using Google Play Music, which made clear the diversity of tastes when facing the information displayed on the panel of our mobile.
