And while that\u2019s definitely the day\u2019s big Android news, Google is up to its old habit of doing a million things at once, and in addition to finally delivering the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/android-16-qpr1-source-code-available-3614853\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Android 16 QPR1 source code<\/a>, chose today to bring testers its latest QPR beta.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/andauth.co\/AAGooglePreferredSource\" class=\"e_Em\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\"><img class=\"e_Gg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Gg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>That would be <a href=\"https:\/\/old.reddit.com\/r\/android_beta\/comments\/1oulgr6\/android_16_qpr2_beta_33_now_available\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Android 16 QPR2 Beta 3.3<\/a>, which we spotted Google announcing over on Reddit.

As most of you know to expect by now, point releases like these tend to focus on smaller stability and bug-fix improvements; that\u2019s exactly what we got last time around, and today Google\u2019s back with more of the same.<\/p>\n<p>So far the company has only shared one fix in specific, but it\u2019s just the kind of annoying one that sounds very much worth putting together a new release around:<\/p>\n<p>If you were running QPR2 Beta 3.2 and ran into any problems like that, hopefully this build sorts you out. Lock screen issues have been a recurring theme of these Beta 3 updates, so let\u2019s pray that Google\u2019s nearly done sorting them all out.<\/p>\n<p>Devices already running the beta will be receiving this latest release by way of an OTA update shortly. If you haven\u2019t yet gotten involved, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/android\/beta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">sign your Pixel up<\/a> with Google and get started directly with QPR2 Beta 3.3 today.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
