the android 15 source code has been released

We usually hear about the latest Android versions at Google Pixel launch events, but the source code for Android 15 has finally been released on the Android Open Source Project. It was oddly absent from last month’s Google Pixel launch, but at least it’s available now. You can check out the developers’ go-live link here.

Android 15 will soon be available on select Pixel models. Additionally, devices from brands like Samsung, Honor, iQOO, Lenovo, Motorola, Nothing, OnePlus, Oppo, realme, Sharp, Sony, Tecno, vivo, and Xiaomi will receive support in the coming months.

Notable features include smart volume adjustment and dynamic range compression for apps using AAC audio with loudness metadata. Other updates and fixes include better split-screen app access and edge-to-edge app display for apps targeting SDK 35.

The developers are also launching a series called Spotlight Weeks to delve into technical topics related to the mobile operating system. They’ll kick off by discussing what’s new in Android 15.

Since Android 10, Google has moved away from naming its releases after desserts. After ending this tradition with Android 9 Pie, the focus has shifted to more straightforward branding and regular feature updates. While these changes reflect a more mature operating system, some of us miss the excitement of those earlier days. Maybe we’ll get a nostalgic nod to the older naming scheme buried somewhere in the settings?
