Android 11 is the next iteration of the world’s most popular smartphone operating system. After an extended developer beta phase, and over a week late than originally expected, Google is rolling out the Android 11 beta to the public.
If you are running the Android 11 developer preview like I am on my Pixel 4, you will get the beta as an OTA update. That means you should get a notification on your phone. However, I recommend that you manually check for the update because the notification didn’t show up on my Pixel 4.
- People
- Controls
- Privacy
Basically, this means that Android 11 will be more people-centric, with features like conversations being clustered together in notifications as we reported in our Android 11 features video (embedded below). It will also give users more control over their device. Lastly, users will get even more control over sensitive permissions such as location, microphone, and camera access.
