Google pushes a minor update to Android 16 QPR1 Beta 1. The Android 16 QPR1 Beta 1.1 update is now available for Pixel 6 and newer models. You need to be part of the beta program to get this new beta update.
Google began the Android 16-based QPR Beta in the latter half of last month. This QPR Beta will be released to the public as the first Android 16-based Pixel Feature Drop, which could arrive by the end of September.
The Android 16 QPR1 Beta 1.1 is available with build number BP31.250502.008.A1 and is still based on the May security patch. Since this is a minor bug fix update, it weighs less than a GB.
This first minor update to Android 16 QPR1 Beta addresses a bunch of issues, such as unresponsive navigation buttons in some scenarios, unexpected crashes, color grading issue and more. Here is the official changelog that comes with the minor update.
- Fixed an issue where the navigation buttons would become unresponsive in the app drawer or task switcher
