'Developer Preview' of Google's Android 15 mobile operating system is now available. Three main areas are the focus of the new preview: optimizing app speed, protecting privacy and security, and assisting creators and developers. It can only be tested on a limited number of Google Pixel tablets and smartphones. Notably, Google's Tensor SoCs power every one of these smartphones as well as the tablet.
April saw the launch of the Android 15 beta.
Like previous year, the Android 15 Beta will begin in April. It should be noted that this is one month prior to Google I/O, the company's yearly developers conference, which typically occurs in the first week of May. Google unveils consumer-facing features and highlights ongoing projects during this event.
In Beta 3, platform stability will be introduced along with "final SDK/NDK APIs as well as final internal APIs and app-facing system behaviours." Prior to the official release, you will have several months to complete your final testing.
