To be honest having new android each year isn't good also. Would be nice if they update android number like every after 2-3 years so it be at least an update

    Carol, 15 May 2023You probably use phones that never update, so with each upd... moreYep... 3 years software 4 years security sure does mean it never updates. BTW I haven't recieved Android 13 yet! This is an outrage! Without android 13 I can't... I can't have weird dual tone icons. And I can't! I can't clear my clipboard every few hours. All deal breakers. My phone is going in the trash TODAY.

                  Instead of giving updates every month, it will be better if they give us an update every 3 or 6 months gap with more stability. Fixing previous bugs and adding more new bugs every month is quite annoying.

                    I'm thankful for all the pixel users who are beta testing minor android updates for the rest of us😂

                    Keep up the good work

                      I haven't noticed this on my 6a or 7a. The article doesn't mention them, but often they are not mentioned even when information may be applicable.

                        kek, 15 May 2023I always disable that crap. it is a huge waste of resources Way less than bloatware UI. Samsung UI for example.
                        Tons of apps which are already there from google and usually better.
                        Same goes for many else UIs.
