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.

How To

Here’s a nifty little trick you can do with your new DROID RAZR M by Motorola – take a screenshot of whatever’s on your screen.

The screenshot image is saved to your Gallery where you can then share it with others or keep it for future reference.

To take an image just press and hold the “power” and “volume down” buttons at the same time for about two seconds. The screen will flash and your screenshot is automatically saved to your Gallery.

Want to make your friends jealous of the great weather you’re having? Take a screenshot and text or email it.

Studying a map and need to remember a location? Snap of picture of the screen and access it later from your Gallery.

Just got an embarrassing late night text from a friend and now you want the world to know? Take a screenshot and post it to Facebook.
