Forget snow days and goodwill—Android fans have a new reason to celebrate. Google has released Android 16 QPR3 Beta 1.1, a fresh update for Pixel devices, and it’s arriving just in time to address a frustrating bug.
Google announced the release on Reddit’s Android Beta subforum on November 21, 2024, building on the initial QPR3 Beta 1 release from earlier in the week. Developers have already begun dissecting the new features in QPR3, and now Google is swiftly addressing early feedback.
The update is available for Pixel 6 phones and newer models, including the foldable devices, as well as the Pixel Tablet. A specific build (CP11.251114.004.A2) is also available for the Pixel 7a. If you’re already running Beta 1, the update will automatically download when available.
What’s the fix? The primary goal of this point release is to squash a pesky bug causing apps to crash immediately upon launch. If you experienced this issue after installing QPR3 Beta 1, this update should provide a welcome solution. For those who haven’t encountered the problem, hopefully, this build maintains a stable experience.
