Tells start step by step so you get to know what is Android KitKat  4.4 ?

What is Android KitKat  4.4 ?

Android 4.4 is the latest version of Google’s mobile operating system. The first phone it features in is the Google Nexus 5. 

Android KitKat  4.4 – Interface

New features win most of the spotlight in any Android update, but one of the most important changes in Android 4.4 KitKat is its new approach to interface design.

The software doesn’t look radically different, but there are some quite fundamental, important alterations. The line that used to separate the shortcut icon dock from the rest of the home screen has disappeared, and so have the apps/widgets tabs in the apps menu.

It may sound trivial, but makes Android 4.4 much simpler, visually, than Android 4.3. And this change has clearly been made following some careful thought about how people actually use the system.

Ahsan Khan shared some useful information which is ( M.U.S.T ) to share with you all about the features and specification.
