Android 15 QPR1 Beta 1

Android 15 continues to swing in the testing phase with the new QPR1 Beta 1 update. Ahead of the stable release, the company has rolled out the first Quarterly Platform Release firmware with certain interface changes, new display settings, and more.

Google has pushed off the Android 15 QPR1 Beta 1 to devices like Pixel Fold, Tablet, and all the phone series till sixth generation. But the Pixel 9 series is an exception.

It is unclear why the newly launched handsets didn’t receive the new build. Google is offering the Android 15 Beta 4.2 update to these devices with new improvements, fixes, and a security patch. One can expect QPR1 for these devices soon.

Beta testers will receive the Android 15 QPR1 testing firmware with version AP41.240726.009. The firmware holds some hidden features for Pixel devices. It also accompanies the August 2024 security patch for a bug-free experience.

For changes, Android 15 beta users may find display enhancements. The company has added a new predictive back gesture animation to the Google Keyboard. However, this feature remains confined to specific areas or apps in the Pixel smartphones.

The next change is the updated animation for holding down the quick settings tiles. It will now play a zooming pattern that gradually opens the particular setting.

It is worth mentioning that rolling back to the previous build from the new QPR1 Beta 1 update may wipe out all your data. If you want to avoid this situation, you can skip the latest firmware and wait for the stable rollout which could arrive next month.
