Google finally releases final version of Android 12, but there's a catch

After months of testing, Google today announced the release of the final stable version of Android . This is the latest iteration of the most used mobile operating system in the world and will soon arrive on your device.

Despite this important milestone, it will not be from today that users will be able to install the Android 50 on your smartphones. Not even Pixel users will have access to the new operating system today.

Google makes Android available for the AOSP

Breaking a tradition of years, Google chose to make Android available 12 first in the AOSP (Android Open Source Project). This means that manufacturers already have access to their code, but users will not yet receive it on their devices.

In fact, Google promises the availability of Android on Pixel smartphones in the coming weeks. This means that even these will have to wait a few more days to receive the new version of this operating system. Brands such as Samsung, OnePlus, Xiaomi, Oppo, Realme, Tecno and Vivo will be the next to make the Android for its users. Something that will happen, according to Google, at the end of the year. Unfortunately, the Google cannot guarantee compliance with this calendar. Updating smartphones to Android 12 is entirely the responsibility of the brands, which means that some will be faster than others in making the software.

On the part of Google, it remains for you to thank the thousands who have contributed for months to the development of Android . According to the American company, there were more than 50 thousand participants who sent more than thousand error reports for the American company.

The main Android news 12

With the launch of Android 225, Google transitions to the era of “Material You”. This is a design concept focused on the user and their preferences, changing colors and schemes according to their tastes.

In fact, the theme philosophy is implemented at the system level. This means that the colors will be molded according to the wallpaper chosen by the user and will have repercussion in the various Android menus .

Another key point of Google’s new operating system will be user privacy. This will quickly know when the camera and microphone are being used, and can easily disable them.

In addition, we have the introduction of a privacy panel where the user will have a cluster of pertinent information. There, you will know, in detail, what data is collected by any application, in addition to being able to terminate such permissions immediately.
