In a press statement, Motorola said, "This latest version of Android brings all-new material design to life with a bold, new visual style. The new user interface is designed to enable better, more natural touch screen interactions and introduces vivid new colours, typography, and edge-to-edge imagery to make using your phone more fluid. It lets you catch up with notifications on your lock screen and even dismiss them without unlocking. Android Lollipop's new 'Downtime' and 'Interruption' settings also allow you to decide what people and what notifications get through at times that you choose."
