Here's everything new (and upcoming) in Android 15 Beta 3
Google released Android 15 Beta 3 yesterday, and as usual, I [did a deep dive](https://x.com/MishaalRahman/status/1803141388696998188) into everything new I uncovered in the release. I know a lot of folks here don't like Twitter/X links (because of the login requirement and...other reasons), so here's a bullet point list of everything from that thread:
* Since Android 15 has now reached **Platform Stability** with Beta 3, the "Android version" [no longer says](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GQYn...
