TL;DR<\/p>\n
A new Android Canary build is on the way.
\nThe upcoming build features the number ZP11.260123.011.<\/p>\n
Update: February 12, 2026 (3:44 PM ET): Users are reporting that the new Android Canary build is now available on the Android Flash Tool<\/a>.<\/p>\n Original article: February 12, 2026 (1:56 PM ET): Android Canary<\/a> is a program for Pixel fans who want to experience the bleeding edge of what Android has to offer. After rolling out the program last July, Google finally created a r\/Android_Canary subreddit<\/a> where users can stay informed on the latest updates regarding Canary. That subreddit is now getting some of its first action with the reveal of a new build.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n Every month since the rollout of Android Canary, Google has released a new build. Our first Canary build of 2026<\/a> came out on January 8 and arrived with version number ZP11.251212.007. It was in this update that we spotted new strings about the upcoming App Lock feature<\/a> for Android 17. Now the Android Canary subreddit<\/a> has revealed that February\u2019s build is on the way and it will carry the version number ZP11.260123.011.<\/p>\n Which Android release do you usually run?<\/p>\n 450 votes<\/p>\n Stable only<\/p>\n 50%<\/p>\n Beta sometimes<\/p>\n 19%<\/p>\n Always on beta<\/p>\n 25%<\/p>\n I like living dangerously (Canary \/ Dev Previews)<\/p>\n 7%<\/p>\n This build has not been released quite yet, so there\u2019s no information on it other than the build number. However, this suggests that Android Canary 2602 is almost ready to drop.<\/p>\n Like the other Android Canary monthly releases, you\u2019ll get a notification to install this month\u2019s new one OTA if you\u2019re already part of the program. If you want to join the club, all you have to do is flash your Pixel<\/a> with Canary 2602 when it becomes available. Keep in mind that you\u2019ll want to get all your data saved off-device before you join.<\/p>\n![\"google](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766572210_733_google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/ "\\"google"){kind=icon}
