Android 15 is out — but it’s not ready for your phone yet

Pixel phones will get the update first.

While Apple typically rolls out major changes tied directly to each new version of iOS, Google’s Android updates often focus on tweaking the underlying ways apps and devices interact with each other. The company already partners with the United States Geological Survey (USGS) and its ShakeAlert system to offer warnings in California, Oregon, and Washington using readings from traditional seismometers. Some other features coming to Android devices include a way for Chrome to read webpages aloud as well as support for offline Google Maps in Wear OS 5.
