<h4>Navigation bar</h4>
<p>Android 4.0 removes the need for traditional hardware keys on phones by replacing them with a
virtual navigation bar that houses the Back, Home and Recents buttons. Read the
<a href="{@docRoot}design/patterns/compatibility.html">Compatibility</a> pattern to learn how the OS adapts to
phones with hardware buttons and how pre-Android 3.0 apps that rely on menu keys are supported.</p>

<h4>Multi-pane layouts</h4>
<p>Creating apps that scale well across different form factors and screen sizes is important in the
Android world. Multi-pane layouts allow you to combine different activities that show separately on
smaller devices into richer compound views for tablets.</p>

<h4>Selection</h4>
<p>The long press gesture which was traditionally used to show contextual actions for objects is now
