How to sign up

You can get started with Beta 1 today by enrolling any Pixel device (including Pixel and Pixel XL). If you were previously enrolled in the Android P Beta Program, you must enroll again to receive Android Q. Once enrolled, eligible devices will receive an over-the-air (OTA) update to the latest beta version.

Note: it may take up to 24 hours to receive the OTA update on your device. You can check for updates by going to Settings > System > System updates. Thanks for your patience!

Downloadable system images for Pixel devices are also available. As always, you can use the Android Emulator, and download the latest emulator system images via the SDK Manager in Android Studio.


What is in Android Q beta?

Android Q introduces a variety of new capabilities for users and developers including additional privacy and security features for users, as well as enhancements for foldables, new APIs for connectivity, new media codecs and camera capabilities, NNAPI extensions, Vulkan 1.1 support, faster app startup, and more.

This is just the start - there will be more features and capabilities added later in the preview and we’ll have even more to share at Google I/O in May.


Release Notes

Since this is a beta release, we suggest you first familiarize yourself with Android Q known issues, limitations, and general advisories. You can read them here.

PLEASE NOTE!
Once you're enrolled
Phone updates
You may remain in the Android Beta Program beyond the initial Q release to preview future Android Q updates. These may include bug fixes, feature updates and improvements to stability and performance. If you choose to do so, you will automatically get pre-release updates as they become available. At the end of the program, you will begin to receive regular public updates.

Leaving the beta program
You may opt out of the programme at any time to return to the stable, public version of Android. If you opt out when your device is running a beta version of Android, all user data on the device will be wiped. If you choose to stay enrolled until the end of the programme, you will graduate from the programme and receive an update to the stable public release of Q. Your device will not be wiped.

Installing now.

Not that it matters to me but apparently Pokemon Go doesn't work on the beta.
