Android 16 launches earlier this year, here is why this wasn’t possible before
[ad_1]
Google Android 16 is expected to launch earlier this year, a step that Mountain View hopes to repeat it in the coming years. Usually, a new version of Android is released every year in Q3, but Google It announced that Android 16 will be put in the Q2.
The search giant revealed months ago that Android 16 will be launched in the first week of June, but the exact date is still a mystery at the present time. In an interview with Android police, Google President of the Android Samer Samat, confirmed that Android 16 remains on the right path for the June version that we promised.
Also, Samat explained the reason for Google's ability to launch Android 16 several months before 2025 and why this was not possible before. According to him, Google is now using the TRUNK Stable Development for Android 16.
The development of Trunk Stable means that every person working on Android contributes to the same branch of the code. We can build the entire system more regularly and often. This opposes all work on different branches, then we all merge them in the end. Then we need a lot of time to keep pace with problems and challenges.

Samat went on to say that the multiple teams that work on a new version of Android will meet in June to collect all the symbols of the different branches and know what to settle it. Then it takes Google engineers several months ago from June to address all problems, forcing the company to delay the launch of the main Android update until later in the year.
Another reason is that the Google strategy to release a new version of Android a lot earlier is to work now that the search giant is dealing with smaller updates in a different way. The monthly "Drop Drop" updates brings significant changes that were not part of the main Android version, and perhaps this will happen in the future as well.
When we have new capabilities, the decision is always between do we reserve this to issue the operating system, or do we give it to people on a more chapter rhythm with Android drops. We have received a great response to Android drops because it seems that your phone is always improving.

Finally, Samat promised that Google provides more in -depth details about major versions such as Android 16, a change that will deal with thirst for knowledge that many Android fans tend after each big version.
Google usually highlights the most important changes that the main Android update brings, leaving the rest to its hard -line fans to discover it. Fortunately, this is about to change if Google maintains her promise.
