Discover the New Features of Marshmallow
With the new arrival of Android 6.0 Marshmallow, LG has prepared a sweet surprise for you
- Battery Optimization: Battery optimization has been added to reduce battery consumption. The battery will now be optimized automatically when your phone or apps are not in use for a certain period of time. Battery optimization will stop when you use your phone or apps again.
- Knock Code Settings: Knock Code is to be updated to offer a better experience for the latest OS. You must now have at least 6 taps and use 3 different quarters in your knock code. To unlock the screen, the knock code for the current user can only be used.
- App Permissions: App permissions have been changed. You can allow or deny permissions for an app to access certain features from other apps. After you install an app and open it, pop-ups may show and you may be asked to give permissions to an app for certain features. You must give permissions to use the app. You can decide whether or not to give permissions. Select Don't ask again to not be asked twice when you decide not to give permissions.
- Direct Share: Direct Share has been added. Before, you chose an app to share to, and then a person. Now, frequently shared combinations of apps and people will be recommended. When you select Share via, you can receive up to 8 recommendations for which app and contact to share with.
- Silent Mode: Silent mode has been added to the sound profile. You can silence the phone in the notification panel or in the volume panel that shows when you press the Volume keys.

Alarms will sound or vibrate when do not disturb is set to priority only. Alarms will be silenced when do not disturb is set to total silence.

Renamed Features
- Qmemo is now Capture +: QMemo+ in the notification panel has been renamed to Capture+. QMemo+ is just the same as before.
