Android 17 QPR1 Beta 3 is now able for Pixel testers to put in

Now, two extra weeks down the road, it’s time for Beta 3 to reach. We first heard it used to be at the approach a couple of hours again, when Google shared at the Android Builders Weblog that Beta 3 used to be touchdown with “a minor SDK unencumber to give a boost to a couple of options that simply couldn’t watch for QPR2.” Whilst we didn’t see it to start with, the discharge is now in spite of everything to be had for testers to put in.
