ANDROID 17 WILL PUT FULL-SCREEN APPS ON YOUR ALWAYS-ON DISPLAY

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Google plans to add a new capability called Min Mode to Android's Always-On Display (AOD) in Android 17. Min Mode will use the same low-power technology as AOD to display full-screen interfaces from apps. Developers must register a 'MinModeActivity' component in their apps for them to work with the feature. Min Mode has the potential to reshape the definition of an 'idle' phone.
