Android 14 Beta 5 (android-developers.googleblog.com)
submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

With the official release of Android 14 only weeks away, today we're bringing you Beta 5, the last scheduled update in our Android 14 beta program. It's the last chance to make sure your apps are ready and provide feedback before non-beta users start getting Android 14. To enable you to test your applications on devices spanning multiple form factors, Beta 5 is available for Pixel Tablet and Pixel Fold, in addition to the rest of the supported Pixel family and the Android emulator.

Beta 5 is our third Platform Stable Android 14 release, which means that the developer APIs and all app-facing behaviors are final for you to review and integrate into your apps, and you can publish apps on Google Play targeting Android 14's SDK version 34. It includes the latest fixes and optimizations, giving you everything you need to complete your testing.

I'm really looking forward to the clone app feature being backed into AOSP. Hopefully LineageOS gets updated pretty soon as it was the case with Android 13

That'd be great so I can use my two phone numbers with Signal, which so far doesn't let you enroll two numbers simultaneously.

You might wanna leverage android's "work profiles" feature using something like Shelter or Island to achieve this :P

Can't sideload APK because of work restrictions.

Developer mode is also blocked.

Island and Shelter can both be installed from Google Play πŸ€”

Link? I can't find either of them.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.island

We're sorry, the requested URL was not found on this server.

https://gitea.angry.im/PeterCxy/Shelter#downloads doesn't seem to be on Play Store.

...that's odd, but their absence explains my lack of automatic updates πŸ€”

Well, sorry for wasting a bit of your time, seems like they're no longer on Google Play :(
