Android 17 Beta 3 is now available for developers
Google has rolled out the third Android 17 beta to developers, about a month after the second. Notably, the first beta was released on February 13. With Beta 3, Android 17 has now reached platform stability.
Android 17 Beta 3 is now available for Pixel 6 and newer devices, including the Pixel Tablet and Pixel Fold handsets. Users enrolled in the beta program will receive the update over the air.
In an official blog post, Google detailed the new features and improvements in Beta 3, which also includes the March Android security patch.
The update introduces support for the RAW14 image format, the option to hide app labels on the home screen, more granular audio routing for hearing aids, a redesigned screen recording toolbar, and improved widget scaling on larger displays, among other enhancements.
The Android 17 stable update is expected to be released in June.

iOS is only marketed as a premium experience, isn't really one though, once you learn to look past the blind love for the Brand.
