This is a list of features in the Android operating system.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Android Supported Media Formats )〕 ==General== ; Messaging: SMS and MMS are available forms of messaging, including threaded text messaging and Android Cloud To Device Messaging (C2DM) and now enhanced version of C2DM, Android Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) is also a part of Android Push Messaging services. ;Web browser: The web browser available in Android is based on the open-source Blink (previously WebKit) layout engine, coupled with Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine. Then the WebKit-using Android Browser scored 100/100 on the Acid3 test on Android 4.0 ICS; the Blink-based browser currently has better standards support. The browser is variably known as 'Android Browser', 'AOSP browser', 'stock browser', 'native browser', and 'default browser'. Starting with Android 4.4 KitKat, Google has mandated that the default browser for Android proper be Google Chrome. Since Android 5.0 Lollipop, the WebView browser that apps can use the display web content without leaving the app has been separated from the rest of the Android firmware in order to facilitate separate security updates by Google. ; Voice-based features: Google search through voice has been available since initial release.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Speech Input for Google Search )〕 Voice actions for calling, texting, navigation, etc. are supported on Android 2.2 onwards.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Voice Actions for Android )〕 As of Android 4.1, Google has expanded Voice Actions with ability to talk back and read answers from Google's Knowledge Graph when queried with specific commands.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.geek.com/articles/mobile/googles-new-jelly-bean-voice-actions-20120627/ )〕 The ability to control hardware has not yet been implemented. ; Multi-touch: Android has native support for multi-touch which was initially made available in handsets such as the HTC Hero. The feature was originally disabled at the kernel level (possibly to avoid infringing Apple's patents on touch-screen technology at the time). Google has since released an update for the Nexus One and the Motorola Droid which enables multi-touch natively. ; Multitasking: Multitasking of applications, with unique handling of memory allocation, is available. ; Screen capture: Android supports capturing a screenshot by pressing the power and home-screen buttons at the same time. Prior to Android 4.0, the only methods of capturing a screenshot were through manufacturer and third-party customizations (apps), or otherwise by using a PC connection (DDMS developer's tool). These alternative methods are still available with the latest Android. ; Video calling: Android does not support native video calling, but some handsets have a customized version of the operating system that supports it, either via the UMTS network (like the Samsung Galaxy S) or over IP. Video calling through Google Talk is available in Android 2.3.4 (Gingerbread) and later. Gingerbread allows Nexus S to place Internet calls with a SIP account. This allows for enhanced VoIP dialing to other SIP accounts and even phone numbers. Skype 2.1 offers video calling in Android 2.3, including front camera support. Users with the (Google+ Android app ) can video chat with other Google+ users through (Hangouts ). ; Multiple language support: Android supports multiple languages. ; Accessibility: Built-in text-to-speech is provided by ''TalkBack'' for people with low or no vision. Enhancements for people with hearing difficulties are available, as are other aids. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of features in Android」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
