This is the official \u201cplatform stability\u201d release, meaning not much will change from here, and the operating system is close to being ready for a global release.<\/p>\n<p>At this point, the word \u201cbeta\u201d doesn\u2019t mean nearly as much, and if you\u2019ve been waiting for a good time to try Android 12, now is probably your best bet.\u00a0And while this release technically hit Google\u2019s stability milestone, you still might experience a bug or two. That said, this is about as stable as it\u2019ll get until it officially arrives.<\/p>\n<p>The Android 12 beta 4 available today added any remaining \u201cfinal system behaviors,\u201d refines the new\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.google\/products\/android\/android-12-beta\/\">Material You<\/a>\u00a0experience and finalizes all APIs for developers.

Phones like the OnePlus 9 or select devices from ASUS, Oppo, RealMe, Sharp, and ZTE can try the Android 12 beta. So, here\u2019s what you need to know and how to try it today.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_New_in_Android_12_Beta_4\"><\/span>What\u2019s New in Android 12 Beta 4?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-83932 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2021\/05\/e07b9e03.jpg\" alt=\"Android 12 beta on the Pixel 3\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Cory Gunther\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Cory Gunther<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>So, what\u2019s new? Well, not much that we can see from Google\u2019s <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/android-developers.googleblog.com\/2021\/08\/android-12-beta-4-and-platform-stability.html\">official announcement<\/a>\u00a0or from getting the update on our Pixel 4. We did notice the G-logo got a Material You makeover. Even Google\u2019s <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/developer.android.com\/about\/versions\/12\/release-notes\">release notes<\/a> are pretty empty this release. Basically, the company confirmed that Android 12 is moving along great, it\u2019s stable, and now is the time for developers to jump on board if they haven\u2019t already.<\/p>\n<p>The only notable change mentioned by Google is aimed at developers for the Google Play Services Ad Id, which works with advertisements. That said, the changelog mentions several bug fixes that may improve the experience for those who\u2019ve enjoyed the 3rd beta thus far. We see bug fixes for quick settings, the material you colors, calls, alarm and mute icons, Bluetooth, calendar widgets, RCS messaging on a VPN, poor signal strength, and screen wake problems. Basically, if you experienced any of those, you\u2019ll want to get the 4th beta.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Get_the_Android_12_Beta_4_Update\"><\/span>How to Get the Android 12 Beta 4 Update?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-83950 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2021\/05\/3d9ef470.jpg\" alt=\"Google Android 12 beta program website\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Google\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Google<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This year, the Android 12 beta is\u00a0available on more phones\u00a0than any prior release, and it\u2019s tempting to try it early.
