Tap and go
When you're setting up your new device Lollipop for the first time, you will be presented the Tap and Go option. This system based on Bluetooth and NFC technology transfers all the details of your Google account, configuration, data and applications to your new phone or tablet. Just place the old and the new one over the other. The widgets and wallpapers are also saved.
Use the flashlight
Lanterns applications have always been popular on Android, so Google decided to include the operating system itself, so you you avoid the hassle of downloading another developed by a third party. Notification Center displays sliding your finger from the top of the screen. On the top bar will reveal the flashlight and other settings such as airplane mode. The application will appear only if your device has an integrated LED flash.
Prioritize your applications
Lollipop Android 5.0 lets you make lists of important applications that can send you notifications even when you're busy. Go to Settings -> Sound & Notifications -> Notifications of applications and choose whether to block applications or highlight them. With the volume button on your device you can change the priority mode indefinitely or just for an hour. You can see what applications have this setup with a star on the status bar.
Interact with notifications with the locked device
In Lollipop, all notices of applications appear on the locked screen so you can see them. Not only that, you can also interact with them. Slide your finger on some to ignore and press to answer, depending on the application. Double-tap on a notification to go to the application.
If you want to disable this feature go to Settings -> Sound & Notifications -> When the device is locked.

To disable this mode, press the button to go back and multitasking while. When activated, the system will ask if you want to use a code or pattern to unlock the function. This code is the same you put into your device to lock the screen if you have not enabled, you can not use with stationary applications.

The locked display received many improvements with Android 5.0 Lollipop, including the ability to go directly to the application settings or your panel information from this place. Press and hold any notification of a specific application (application dependent) and see an icon with a gear (the shortcut to go to its settings) and an information icon (shortcut to go to the notification settings).

A new feature in Android 5.0 is the ability to know how long your battery will last or how long you must wait until it is fully charged. Press the battery icon in the notification center to view (load time will also appear on the lock screen minutes after connecting the device to the mains).
Search configurations and networks
The Google search bar becomes more ubiquitous with every version of Android, Lollipop can even search the device configuration. Click the magnifying glass icon to use. It's a quick way to find a particular option you want to set, especially if you do not know what menu is. You can use this same feature to search for saved Wi-Fi networks.
Guest Active Mode
Share devices with other people (friends, colleagues, family, children) can be tricky, but the Lollipop Guest Mode makes it easy. You can activate it from the notification center and pressing the avatar of your user. Then select Add Guest from the menu (or just select Guest if you've already done this process before).

Add trusted devices

This means you do not have to worry about unlocking the device when you're at home or in your car, for example. Go to Settings -> Security -> Smart to activate protection.

This feature works very similar to prioritize applications, but is based on times and days. Go to Settings -> Sound & Notifications -> interrupts to configure. The best option is to use it when you do not want to be bothered at night, for example. Although you can configure it to allow some contacts and alarms can wake.
Return your application after restarting your device
In versions prior to Lollipop, restarting the device, all your recent apps disappeared. In Android 5.0 are still present in the vision of multitasking; so you can resume talks or lectures in a place quickly (not all applications remember exactly where you were). To remove an application from this list, swipe your card to the right or left.
