"There’s lots more in Android 10, including a new enterprise feature that lets you use different keyboards for your personal and work profiles, app timers for specific websites so you can balance your time on the web, new gender-inclusive emoji, and support for direct audio streaming to hearing aid devices," Google said.

The new operating system has also introduced a special Focus mode in Digital Wellbeing which allows users to select the apps that they find distracting and silence them until they come out of the Focus mode. This feature, however, is available only the beta mode as of now and the interested users need to become beta testers to use this feature.
