Google to limit Android source code releases |
 |
Google has announced changes to its Android source code releases which are likely to make life harder for developers of Android-based, open source distributions. Google has stated that source code updates for Android will now be released just twice a year, greatly limiting developers' access to the code. Android Authority reports: "Since beginning the project, Google released the source code for nearly every new version of Android for mobile devices, typically doing so within days of rolling out the corresponding update to its own Pixel mobile devices. Starting this year, however, Google is making a major change to its release schedule for Android source code drops: AOSP sources will only be released twice a year. Google told Android Authority that, effective 2026, Google will publish new source code to AOSP in Q2 and Q4." This will place limitations and time crunches on open source developers who create mobile distributions such as GrapheneOS, Murena, and iodeOS.
