Android 15 Developer Preview and Progress

The Android 15 Developer Preview kicked off in February and has been moving along smoothly. So far, there have been some minor UI tweaks but no major changes. Interestingly, some of these updates have already made their way into the Android 14 QPR3 Beta, which is expected to reach stable release next month.

In late April, Android 15 Beta 1.2 was released in quick succession. Beta 2 is set to drop on Wednesday, and it’s expected to include significant changes. These updates will likely align with Google’s detailed presentation of the standout features for this year’s release.

Google I/O’s Expanded Format

Google’s decision to spread announcements over two days is promising, especially after last year’s brief mention of Android 14 during the keynote. This change also reflects I/O’s return to a multi-day, in-person event. The conference now spans three days, with online sessions available on Thursday, marking another shift in the event’s format.

Key Points to Watch for

AI Integration: Google’s emphasis on AI this year suggests that we might see more AI-driven features in Android 15.

Gemini App Updates: Look out for new capabilities powered by Gemini Nano on Android devices.

UI Tweaks: Minor changes in the user interface that started appearing in the Android 14 QPR3 Beta could give us a glimpse of what’s coming in Android 15.

As Google prepares to unveil more about Android 15 Beta 2, keep an eye on the upcoming announcements for a deeper dive into this year’s key features and improvements.
