long shots
Taking long screenshots, also known as “scrolling screenshots” has become a feature in Android itself. If you can do it now, it is a function of your device manufacturer. Besides, you can create an image, for example, a longer web page, Instagram feed or a conversation in one go The WhatsApp.

More options for themes (colorful)
Android 12 is all about the new design, known as material you. In the third public test version, you can also start it yourself. Choose a background and the color of the icons will be adjusted accordingly. But also different colors for widgets or the quick settings menu.
If you don’t like the automatic adjustments at all, you can put together a great color palette manually. Also, the new “Theme Icons” functionality can now be used. The issue of enabling the function and all device icons are set in good color. However, this (of course) does not work with all applications.
