Android 13's Beta 3 is now out and this iteration takes it to the new milestone, which is Platform Stability. This means Android 13 is close to being polished, bringing us to the final stage before stable Android 13 is released.
Android 13 Beta 3 Review! Platform stability + new features!
Platform Stability for Android 13 ensures that all app-facing behaviors and APIs, including the official API Level 33 SDK, and NDK APIs are now final. Therefore, developers can release their compatible updates without much hesitation. However, this update does not add new features as one would have thought.
Android 13's third beta also lets app developers do all the final compatibility testing for their apps. Google has employed a number of parameters that developers should consider when performing these tests. You can take a look at the details here.
Beta 3 also brings some improvements and fixes for users as well. This includes copy-paste improvements and fixes for the issue that caused a green tint on the screen when a supported phone was unlocked with a fingerprint reader while Always-on-Display is enabled. It also fixes the issue that causes Pixel Launcher to crash on Pixel devices while swiping on the search results page for all apps.
