Motorola Moto G (2014) Android 6.0 Marshmallow Update Now Available

Moto G (2014) smartphones have now began receiving the official Android 6.0 Marshmallow via over-the-air (OTA) update, as seen on the units in India. Recent news pointed out that Marshmallow must come Moto G (2014) units in the US before the end of January.

Motorola has just officially started the ball rolling for Android 6.0 Marshmallow to Moto G (2014) units in India late last week. Beginning with the unlocked versions, the update is expected to hit those under mobile carriers and will soon take a big step in the US.

Amid the sad news about Lenovo's plans of closing down the iconic bat company, David Schuster made clear about its promise to keep more updates coming. Last November, the president took Google+ to announce the onset of the Marshmallow release and more.

Motorola first released the initial Android 6.0 Marshmallow build to its Moto X Style (3rd Gen) and Moto X (2nd Gen) units in both Brazil and Moto X Style (3rd Gen) units in India. Brazil and India are known to be a good market for Motorola.

As the week progresses, Schuster said that their team expects more phones will receive push notification messages coming from them when the update is ready. He underscored that these updates will come in stages.

Per changelog found on Moto X (2014), Android 6.0 Marshmallow will bring in the following features and improvements for Motorola devices:

• New memory manager to check memory usage of all installed apps;
• Great improvements for volume controls;
• Do Not Disturb button now on the quick settings panel for easy access;
• System UI Tuner can be seen in the settings menu;
• Google Now on Tap allows smarter contextual information;
• Doze, a battery management feature that detects device when not in use and it will automatically go into a deep sleep state;
• App Standby reduces battery drain by putting seldom-used apps into a reduced activity state;
• Expandable Storage support allows for microSD cards to be used either in a portable storage or an internal storage mode;
• RAM manager in settings to view memory used by the system or an individual app over different time frames;
• Automatic App backup not only backs up apps but their associated data so when restored they will be the same as they were before; and
• Improved text selection.

Google will also bring additional features along with the update.
