The first Android 15 Developer Preview has been released

The Android 15 update will be released later this year. But if you’re curious about what kind of changes and new features the update will bring to the table, you won’t have to wait much longer. This is because Google has released the first Developer Preview of Android 15.

As with most updates, Android 15 will introduce a bunch of new privacy and security features to better protect Android users. Google is also integrating Android 14 extensions around Health Connect by Android, a centralized platform for all your health and fitness related data. We can also look forward to more granular controls when it comes to screen sharing and Android’s camera.

There are probably a bunch of other features that Google hasn’t publicly announced yet. We’ll have to wait and see what else turns up. Keep in mind that developer previews are just that, previews. As we’ve seen in the past, sometimes some features found in the preview don’t make it to the final cut.

There are many reasons for this, so don’t get your hopes up just yet. Google has released the Android 15 Developer Preview for download, but this is aimed more at developers. For end users, it’s probably not a good idea to use this as your daily driver. If you have a spare phone and you’re curious, then maybe you could take it for a spin. Otherwise, you’re better off waiting for the public beta or the final release.
