Google is working on a new Desktop Mode for Android smartphones, enabling users to connect their devices to external displays for a desktop-like experience.
This feature will offer a revamped interface with a taskbar and resizable app windows, transforming smartphones into portable workstations.
The development of Desktop Mode was first spotted on a Google Pixel device, as reported by Android Authority.
While the feature promises to enhance productivity, it is unlikely to debut in Android 16 and may be delayed to a later version.
