Summary of Android 16 Beta 4 Update

In the latest Android 16 Beta 4 release, Google has removed the Battery health stats page for many Pixel users. This change affects the Pixel 8 Pro, Pixel 9, and Pixel 9 Pro, although some devices still retain the feature. The Battery health page provided a green checkmark if everything was normal and displayed an estimated battery capacity percentage compared to a new standard battery. This information is crucial as it decreases over the device's lifetime.

The Charging optimization settings have moved back to the main Battery page. Users can still access other battery-related information, such as Device temperature and Cycle count, through different settings menus. Google hopes to restore the Battery health feature in the stable release scheduled for June, ensuring it is not limited to new devices only.
