New Android 14 QPR1 Beta 1: Exciting Features & How to Get It!

Alright, so, there was a bit of a hiccup with Android 14‘s release ’cause of some bugs and viruses. Everyone was kinda hoping for it to drop in August, but looks like we’ll have to wait till October. But hey, Google’s still pushing out the good stuff and now they’ve rolled out Android 14 QPR1 Beta 1.

Just last week, that big US tech company spilled the beans about this QPR1 beta coming next week. And boom, here it is now. This beta’s got a bunch of new cool stuff and fixes to make your phone experience even better. Let’s dive into the nitty-gritty.

So this Android 14 QPR1 has a version number: U1B1.230908.003. If you’re rocking a Pixel 5, 6, 7, Fold, or even those Pixel tablets, you’re in luck. There’s a long list of things they’ve fixed in this update.

Now, some stuff they’ve sorted out include the system UI sometimes going bonkers, your phone acting weird when recording videos, alarms getting reset, and a few other pesky issues. But there’s also some new goodies! Think a better display for large screens, a new way your battery works, some audio tweaks, a fresh lock screen clock look, and even a floating search bar.

Here’s a quick look at what’s new in Android 14 QPR1 Beta 1:

• Things to play with: Aside from the usual stuff, try out the large screen display tweaks.
• Top stuff they’ve fixed: No more system UI meltdowns after getting notifications, devices not crashing randomly, no freezing while recording, and a couple more fixes.
• Still some bugs: There’s a list of some known issues with this beta, so don’t freak out if you run into them.

How to get this beta on your device: They’ve started sending out this update, but depending on your phone and carrier, it might take a week or so. If you ain’t on the beta yet, you can use Google’s flashy tool to get it manually. If you’re already in, just head to Settings > System > System updates and see if there’s anything new waiting for you.
