Android 13’s Beta 3 is now out and this iteration takes it to the new milestone, which is Platform Stability. This means that Android 13 is close to being polished, thus, taking us to the final stage before the stable Android 13 releases.
Platform Stability for Android 13 ensures that all app-facing behaviors and APIs, including the official API Level 33 SDK, and NDK APIs are now final. Hence, developers can release their compatible updates without much hesitation. However, this update doesn’t bring in new features as one would have thought.
Google will most likely release another beta update, sometime in July before it officially releases Android 13 in a few months. The stable Android 13 update is expected later this year. For those who don’t know, Android 13 doesn’t bring in major features this time. But, aims on improving the overall experience with new notification permissions, photo picker, per-app language support, and more. Various privacy and security features are also added.
