Google rolls out April Android Canary build with new experimental Pixel features
Android Authority • • general
Key Points:
- Google has released the Android Canary 2604 (ZP11.260320.007) build, providing developers early access to experimental features for Pixel devices starting from the Pixel 8 series.
- This latest build arrived just weeks after the previous Canary release (2603) on March 19, indicating a rapid update cycle.
- Notable user-facing changes include a new "You're all caught up" message after clearing notifications and more compact app icon long-press menus with collapsible "Shortcuts" and "Actions" toggles.
- Users should be aware that installing a Canary build prevents easy rollback to stable versions; stopping Canary updates requires flashing a non-Canary build, which entails a full data wipe.
