Google has released the first Developer Preview for Android 16, marking an earlier-than-usual start to its release cycle. This shift moves the launch from its typical February timeline, aligning with Google’s goal to release the final version by the second quarter of 2025.
Primarily targeted at developers, this early Preview offers a sneak peek at some of the platform’s upcoming features. One notable addition is an enhanced API for the system photo picker, promising a more seamless and integrated app experience.
