Android 16 Beta 2 Dropping Tomorrow: What to Expect from the Incremental Update

Google has announced the release of Android 16 Beta 2, scheduled for February 13th. The previous beta, Beta 1, released in January, primarily catered to app developers with changes such as ordered broadcast priority scope, ART internal changes, support for 3-button navigation, and more. However, it did not introduce significant user-facing updates. It is unclear if Beta 2 will bring notable UI changes, but it is described as an 'Incremental Beta-quality release.' The presence of Android 16 at Google I/O 2025 in May remains a point of interest, especially given the earlier preview cycle.
