With the official release of Android 14 only weeks away, today we’re bringing you Beta 5, the last scheduled update in our Android 14 beta program. It’s the last chance to make sure your apps are ready and provide feedback before non-beta users start getting Android 14. To enable you to test your applications on devices spanning multiple form factors, Beta 5 is available for Pixel Tablet and Pixel Fold, in addition to the rest of the supported Pixel family and the Android emulator.
Beta 5 is our third Platform Stable Android 14 release, which means that the developer APIs and all app-facing behaviors are final for you to review and integrate into your apps, and you can publish apps on Google Play targeting Android 14’s SDK version 34. It includes the latest fixes and optimizations, giving you everything you need to complete your testing.
Predictive gestures still in developer options?
What does that do?
It allows third party apps to know how much of the back gestures was performed and do an animation that is controlled by your finger or other action based on it. Imo ideally it should look something like opening a post on Instagram - a fancy expansion/collapse animation (except the app can also know which side you’re swiping from)
