Here’s how to use Android P features on Android O phones

Google rolled out the Android P Developer Preview earlier in March for all the Pixel models released till date. It's true that we still don't know what the new version of Android will be called, but we now have a list of features that will debut with it. 

For Android fans and loyalists, it’s quite upsetting to know that the preview is limited to the Pixel users. But it looks like there is a solution to this. Interested users don't need a Pixel device anymore, or even flashing the Dev Preview isn't required.

A senior member at XDA had released Android P-ify, a new Xposed Module that brings Android P features to Android Oreo 8.0. It can be installed by downloading the APK and installing it like any other Xposed Module.

The only issue with the module is that it runs on Android Oreo 8.1, as of now. Which means the module won’t work on Android 8.0, which the developer says will be fixed soon. It might also not work on heavily tweaked ROMs present on phones from Samsung or LG. 

 Android P-ify features

The Android P-ify Xposed Module brings a new quick settings design, but it is dissimilar to the one on Android P Developers Preview. 

The clock moves to the left side of the status bar. There is the new rounded search bar and coloured icons in the settings menu. And it gets new app transitions along with a toggle to turn off these features.
