LineageOS has added60+ device support, what are your expectations for LineageOS 18.1?

LineageOS 18.1 has added some features and optimized some performance issues:

• Security patches from April 2020 to March 2021 have been merged to LineageOS 15.1 through 18.1.

• 18.1 builds are currently based on the android-11.0.0_r32 tag, which is the Pixel series unified tag.

• Wi-Fi display is available for newer Qualcomm devices, on a device-by-device basis.

• WebView has been updated to Chromium 89.0.4389.105.

• The Recorder app has been vastly improved in more ways than can be counted, go leave yourself a voice memo so you don’t forget that great idea!

• Screen recording has been moved to a QS tile to match AOSP’s behavior.

• The user interface has been revamped and there’s also now a UI for easily viewing, managing, and sharing your voice notes.

• It’s now possible to choose the quality of your audio recordings to save space.

• It’s now possible to pause and resume recordings.

• The FOSS Etar app has been forked, improved, and shipped in place of the stagnant and largely unmaintained AOSP calendar.

• The Calyx institute’s FOSS Seedvault application has been included as a built-in backup solution.

• To use it, navigate to Settings -> System -> Backup, and “Change backup provider” to Seedvault. You can then click “Seedvault Backup” to configure, schedule, and encrypt backups!

• Backups created with Seedvault can be uploaded on your Nextcloud instance, an external USB drive or kept on your local storage.

• There is now an option on non-A/B devices to update the recovery image alongside the OS, just as the stock OS would!

• To use this, either enable the option during the initial device setup, or navigate to Settings -> System -> (Show More) Updater -> Three Dot Menu in the top right -> and check “Update recovery alongside OS”.

• The music app, Eleven now has a more up-to-date UI and integrates nicely with all the new android features for music players such as seeking from the notification.

• All LineageOS apps now have support for dark mode.

In addition to the improvements mentioned above, LineageOS 18.1 and 17.1 codebases have also added the following changes:

• LineageOS recovery now has a new, colorful, and fun UI that is much more accessible.

• The firewall can block all connections now by making apps think that the device is in airplane mode.

• The team has introduced a new expandable volume dialog UI.

• The partial screenshots have had multiple feature additions, and ties in with AOSP’s new “instant screenshot” feature.

• Trebuchet now supports icon packs.

• ADB root was reworked to ensure compatibility with other 3rd party root solutions.

The following devices should be among the first to be supported, however, these devices may not be supported immediately, but they will be supported as soon as possible.
