Software & Apps

We’re happy to announce today that the Android™ 4.1 Jelly Bean upgrade is rolling out to DROID RAZR and DROID RAZR MAXX by Motorola owners in phases. Android™ 4.1 Jelly Bean offers new features and apps that make your life simpler. With features like Google Now, Voice Search and expanded notifications, all of your key information is at your fingertips.

  • Google Now – We could all use a good planner to keep track of our busy lives. With Google Now you get notifications generated automatically and in real-time even before you ask. Now your DROID RAZR and DROID RAZR MAXX  can deliver sports scores, stock updates, weather reports and traffic updates so you have all the information you want even before you’ve had your morning coffee.
  • Expanded Notifications – You should be able to call or text someone back right from your missed call notification. With Android™ 4.1 Jelly Bean you have the ability to do that and more. When you get a reminder about a meeting you can either tap once to snooze or even email participants to say you’re running late.
  • Voice Search – Ask a question and get back the answer you’re looking for, ranging from “When is the next bus?” to “Where can I find a great Mexican restaurant?” You’ll either get a spoken response back or search results that answer your query.

“Data limits” — two words that strike fear in power users. Go over yours during a billing cycle, and you’re hit with extra charges.

But how do you know if you’re reaching your limit and what can you do about it?

With Android’s 4.0 Data Manager, you can easily monitor and control your data usage.

With just a couple of clicks, Data Manager gives you detailed information about your phone’s data consumption. A chart shows you what apps are data hogs, and you can set up an alert to ping you if you get near your limit.

Check out the overview video below to see how Data Manager works on the DROID RAZR MAXX, DROID RAZR, DROID 4 and DROID XYBOARD 10.1
