The First Android 15 Developer Preview is Here

While the update doesn’t bring significant changes, it should pave the way for future Developer Preview releases and Betas. Here’s everything you need to know about Android 15 Developer Preview 1.

Google’s main focus in DP1 is on Privacy and Security with features like the latest version of the AdServices module featuring Privacy Sandbox APIs, the FileIntegrityManager class adding new APIs from Linux Kernel’s fs-verity feature, and Partial Screen Sharing.

If Google follows the same schedule it did with Android 14 Developer Previews and Betas, there will be two Developer Previews and five Betas. The search giant may also release hotfixes to squash any excessive bugs as the DPs and Beta are usually full of bugs and app crashes.
Android 15 should reach Platform Stability in June 2024, and the testing should end by October with Google finally releasing the stable build. As for the upcoming features, it’s too early to tell; however, you can read our wishlist offeatures we want to see in Android 15.
