Google pushed out a minor update to the first Android 15 Beta today to fix a few big bugs. The new update arrives as Android 15 Beta 1.1 and will land on your devices shortly over-the-air.
The main focus of the update appears to be on NFC, since that was super busted in the first beta build. The first bug fix listed says it “fixed various issues with NFC” and then names 7 specific issues that Google was tracking related to it. After that, Google says it fixed a Developer Options crash, another that prevented some people from updating to Beta 1, and another that dealt with printing.
Android 15 Beta 1.1 Build Info
The new build to be on the lookout for is AP31.240322.023 and it is available to the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, Pixel 6a, Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, Pixel 7a, Pixel Fold, Pixel Tablet, and Pixel 8 and 8 Pro. Again, the Pixel 5a will be cutoff by the time Android 15 launches, hence the reason for its omission.
