Android 13 Beta 3 stage released for Pixel users
With the third Beta stage, Android 13 has reached Platform Stability, which is an important milestone for app developers. It means that all app-facing behaviors in the operating system and the APIs are now final. This is where the majority of app developers would want to begin working on Android 13 compatibility for their apps and software packages, knowing that the platform will not change from now until the firmware’s final release.
As a quick refresher, the Android 13 firmware will bring in a renewed focus on privacy, security, and productivity. Moreover, it’ll offer better support for tablets and large screens, building upon the work previously done with the Android 12L update. There will be new notification permission as well as a revamped photo picker for sharing, per-app language support, themed app icons, and support for modern standards like MIDI 2.0 over USB, HDR video, and Bluetooth LE Audio.
