Yesterday, it was reported that some Pixel device users were getting an Android 12 update instead of Android 13. Google has taken the time to respond to these concerns and has released a statement to Android Authority:
“On August 15, Pixel devices running an old version of Android 12 received a notification about a previously released Android 12 update with bug fixes. The messaging in the notification was confusing with the timing of Android 13, and is currently being changed for clarity.”
According to Google, some Pixel owners were actually prompted to install an Android 12 update to their device instead of getting the latest OS version. This was intended for some Pixel users who were still using an older Android 12 version. Unfortunately, the release simply coincided with Android 13’s launch.
For customers who are affected by this, you can expect the Android 13 update to be released for your device.
