In deepin 20.2.2, a brand-new App Store is released, with a fresh visual design, simplified interaction, Android apps support, and better application management. In addition, kernels are upgraded with the upstream, more GPU models and graphics cards are adapted, and deepin applications are updated, optimized, and fixed, offering improved stability and compatibility, and a better user experience. What's more, deepin supports secure boot to ensure that the device boots trusted software and protects system security.

 

The brand-new App Store is available. In this version, the design is fresh, the interaction is simplified, and batch installation is supported to save your time, improving the user experience greatly. The better content layout, optimized categories, and rankings sorted by ratings, downloads, and updated time, all of which make it easier to discover different types of applications. In addition, Android containers and Android applications are provided to meet users' needs in work, study, gaming, and other scenarios.

Note: Android containers currently only support Kernel 5.10 (LTS). For Kernel 5.12 (Stable), Android support is in process, let's wait for it.

 

To secure your device comprehensively, deepin has obtained a Secure Boot certificate, the first Linux distribution in China to get it. When you select Secure Boot in the BIOS (UEFI-BIOS only), the system only boots the signed kernel during installation, and the device boots using only software trusted by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM).

 

 

The Stable kernel is upgraded to Kernel 5.12 and the LTS kernel has a minor update to Kernel 5.10 following the upstream, which further improves system stability and compatibility. In addition, dual kernels can be installed and updated manually.
