Google Now can be accessed by launching the Google app from the app tray.
- Project Butter was a new feature built into Jelly Bean, it provides users with smooth transitions and an overall faster user experience.
- Expandable and actionable notifications that allow you to take action right from the notifications panel.

The update also includes a new Qualcomm driver update that will allow the user to automatically connect the recent Wi-Fi connections. Users have been plagued by this bug, but this update has resolved the issue, according to users who have already updated their Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1.
