NP, I'm surprised it's so rarely mentioned in this type of post. I used Lawnchair for a while after Nova was bought out, but I think I prefer Hyperion...
I use Hyperion and like it a lot

Thanks for the heads up. They were slow with this update, hope that means it's bug free...
Sorry, I just realized Find my device is tied to play system updates. Hope this helps.
Yes, look in settings under Security > Find my device.

Android 15 Beta 1

The first Android 15 beta just launched! It has edge-to-edge app support, app archiving, better privacy features, and more!

A15 Beta 1 had been out for a week or so. I'm waiting for Beta 2, but posting this in the hope that it will liven up this community...

April update is live

New Pixel 9 renders
A 6.8-inch "Pixel 9 Pro XL," 6.1-inch "Pixel 9 Pro," and a "Pixel 9" at 6.0 inches.
More grist for the rumour mill...

Pixel Fold 2 prototype

Everything we praised in our Pixel Fold review could be removed in the sequel.


Another Pixel 9 leak...
Plus the base model Pixel 9 might be a "mini-Pro" model, with all the same features.
I think it's in the current QPR beta. You need to register for the beta program, which will give you access to the new features they're testing for the December feature drop.

Pixel 8 is official

The Google Tensor SoC finally results in longer support times.

Edit: on P6
The Android beta community isn't very active, so I'll repeat my comments here. With Beta 5.2 my battery life and SOT improved noticeably, and so far, with 5.3, seem to be just as good.
Thanks for the heads up!
Thanks, it's really nice to see the positive response from everyone here
I'm using Lawnchair, and it was pretty buggy in 4.1. It's much less stuttery in beta 5 so far, and hasn't crashed yet.... Fingers crossed....
Nothing terribly new that I've noticed, but my system UI kept crashing in 4.1, and it seems to be much more stable so far... So I really can't complain!

Android 14 Beta 5 is live

The official release of Android 14 is only weeks away. Today we're releasing Beta 5, the last scheduled update in the Android 14 beta program.

I hope it's ok to post this here. The Androidbeta community doesn't seem to have much activity, and while i don't miss Reddit that much, I'm a bit sad there's not much beta news over here...
