Wait did they not just recently release 14?

This is just the beginning of the beta cycle. The final release will be in fall as usual.

They did, yes

If you’re on Android 14 QPR3, Google recommends “you move to Developer Preview 1 now.”

Otherwise you may run into time periods where the Android 14 Beta will have a more recent build date which will prevent you from going directly to the Android 15 Developer Preview without doing a data wipe.

Doesn't that seem odd? QPR's are super stable and the first couple Dev Previews are typically very unstable.

Edit: Nevermind. If want a stable beta you should wait until Android 15 hits beta.

As we reach our Beta releases, we'll be inviting consumers to try Android 15 as well, and we'll open up enrollment for the Android Beta program at that time. For now, please note that the Android Beta program is not yet available for Android 15.
