Android 16 Will Launch Earlier Than Usual
Google is advancing the release timeline for Android 16, shifting it to the second quarter of 2025 to better align with new device launches and accelerate access to its latest AI and machine learning resources. It should also 'enable app creators and phone companies to prepare their products for the new software more quickly,' reports CNET. From the report: [I]n a big-picture sense, the change could help facilitate a new wave of apps with more AI integration, considering developers will get access to Google's latest machine learning and AI resources even sooner. 'We're in a once-in-a-generation moment to completely reimagine what our smartphones can do and how we interact with them,' Google's Seang Chau, who took on the role of vice president and general manager of the Android Platform earlier this year, said in an interview with CNET. 'It's a really exciting time for smartphones, and we've been putting a lot of thought into what we want to do next with them.'

In addition to moving up the major release, Google will roll out a minor update in the fourth quarter of 2025 with feature updates, optimizations and bug fixes. It's a notable switch from Google's usual release timeline, but it's just one of several changes the company has made to the way it distributes Android updates in an effort to add features more frequently. 'Things are moving quite fast in the AI world right now,' Chau said. 'So we want to make sure that we get those developer [application programming interfaces], especially around machine learning and AI, available to our developers so they can build these capabilities faster and get them out to our users faster.'
