How To Download Android 15 Beta 2 On Google Pixel Phone

Before we proceed, it's essential to note that beta software is still in the development phase and may contain bugs or instabilities.

For those eager to explore the latest features despite potential glitches, here's how to download Android 15 Beta 2:

Only select Google Pixel devices are compatible with the Android 15 Beta programme. Users can verify their device's eligibility by visiting the official Android Beta website: developer.android.com/about/versions/15

If the device qualifies, users can proceed to enrol their Pixel device in the beta programme via the Android Beta website.

Upon successful enrollment, users should keep an eye out for a software update notification on their devices.

They can then download and install the update following the on-screen instructions provided.

A Word Of Caution

However, we highly advise you to go ahead with this if you have a secondary Android phone to support your daily work. Since this is in Beta format, Android 15 will tamper around with a lot of your apps, and some of them might just stop working.

Beta versions of software are primarily meant for software developers. So, best to maintain caution before proceeding.
