As we reach close to the official final build and release of Android Q, Google’s next mobile Operating System update, the Android Q engineering team has decided to host an AMA (ask me anything) session on Reddit.
Each developer preview of Android Q has revealed more features and improvements over the last, with the most recent having finalized APIs, the official API 29 SDK, and updated build tools for Android Studio. There aren’t going to be many user-facing features as we enter the release candidate stage, so most of the changes are all under-the-hood from now on.
The AMA that the Android Q engineering team will host is aimed at developers and those with technical questions only. The list of participants from the Android team can be seen below. These are the topics that the team looks forward to talking about, although it’s certainly non-exhaustive.
- Android Jetpack
- Android Studio
- Kotlin
- Notifications
- Dark Theme
- New Gesture Nav
- Security & Privacy
- Location changes in Q
- Project Mainline
- Google Play
Every year since Android Nougat, the Android engineering teams have done an AMA on Reddit, so this is nothing new. The AMA will take place on Thursday, August 1 at 10 PM East African Time/ 12:00 PM PST / 3:00 PM EST (UTC 1900) and will continue until 11:20 PM East African Time/ 1:20 PM PST / 4:20 PM EST that same day. Users can already begin to submit their Android Q related questions now in the thread which is the source link below.
