How to download Android 14 beta version
Pixel phone users can easily access the Android 14 beta operating system through the Android developer’s platform. However, for users of non-Pixel Android smartphones, the process to download the latest beta 2 update is slightly different. They can visit their respective company’s website and find the necessary instructions and files to download and install Android 14 Beta 2 on their devices.
Android 14 Beta 2 Features
The recently released Android 14 Beta 2 introduces a host of exciting features, performance improvements, and privacy improvements to the popular mobile operating system. You have new wallpaper customization options, including the ability to bring up text and widgets, as well as create wallpapers with emoji.
This version also has some privacy-focused features like alerting users when an app wants to share their location data with third-party apps. Android 14 is also expected to offer lossless audio over USB which is crucial to the success of the feature in the years to come.
For visual changes, Android 14 gets native support for 10-bit HDR quality, which is a given for now as most phones offer the technology. Google is likely to have a few more Android 14 beta versions before announcing the public rollout closer to the launch of the next Pixel series phones later this year.
