The latest release, Android Canary 2510, is now available for users of the Pixel 6 and newer devices. This update brings several significant changes, including a fresh user interface for flashlight brightness control, enhancing the overall user experience. With this release, Google is taking steps to empower users with more customization options, especially for those who prefer the traditional three-button navigation system.
This year has been nothing short of thrilling for Android enthusiasts, particularly for those who revel in the intricacies of software development. Google has introduced a new Android Canary track dedicated to bleeding-edge changes, allowing users to experience the latest features before they are officially released. Since launching this track in the summer, Google has consistently rolled out a new Canary release each month, and Android Canary 2510 marks another exciting milestone.
Android Canary 2510 is notably the first release to be fully compatible with the entire Pixel 10 lineup, which includes the recently launched Pixel 10 Pro Fold as of October 9. While Google does not provide a conventional changelog for these Canary versions, opting instead to direct users to its issue tracker, we have explored the build (ZP11.250926.010) and identified several noteworthy enhancements.
One of the standout features is the revamped brightness control slider for the flashlight, which now boasts a more intuitive user interface adorned with flashlight graphics. This update not only makes adjusting brightness simpler but also visually engaging for users.
Alongside the current updates, there are indications of upcoming features that may enhance the user experience even further. Notably, a new toggle labeled “turn off display on inactivity” suggests that Google is contemplating an evolution for the always-on display (AOD), which could soon be rebranded as the sometimes-on display. While this feature is not yet active, its presence hints at exciting developments on the horizon.
Another practical change included in this release is the option to rearrange the order of buttons in the classic three-button navigation setup. This feature will particularly delight users accustomed to the navigation layout found on Samsung Galaxy phones, providing a more personalized interface.
