Android 10 was released on September 3, 2019, and Android 11 came out on September 8, 2020. So where is this year’s Android twelve release?

Instead of the final Android 12 release this month, Google pushed out Android 12 Beta 5 and said the final release was “weeks” away. A new report from XDA Developers’ Mishaal Rahman claims to narrow things down a bit, saying that Monday, October 4, is the magic date.

XDA says it has an internal Search engines document detailing the “tentative” launch date for Android 12. The document actually only lists when the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) source code will be launched, but the developer source code|code calculatordecoder} release and the consumer Pixel release are usually on the same day.
