+after performing a factory reset or when switching devices.</p>
+
+
+<h3>Device policy manager</h3>
+
+<p>New device policy management APIs allow developers to write "device administrator" applications
+that can control security features on the device, such as the minimum password strength, data wipe,
+and so on. Users can select the administrators that are enabled on their devices.</p>
+
+
+<h3>UI framework</h3>
+
+<p>New "car mode" and "night mode" controls and configurations allow applications to adjust their UI
+for these situations. A scale gesture detector API provides improved definition of multi-touch
+events. Applications can now customize the bottom strip of a TabWidget.</p>
