Also, you stand a better chance of keeping that instant app data if you decide to install the full thing. Where you previously needed Android Oreo to preserve that content, it now applies to phones running Lollipop or newer.

Developers will need to roll the new features into their Android titles, so don't expect to see improvements right away. With that said, the gap between instant and fully installed apps should be noticeably narrower, especially if you're using one of the vast majority of Android devices that doesn't yet have Oreo.
