As reported by Mishaal Rahman, according to TeamB58, Google’s upcoming Android update codenamed “Vanilla Ice Cream” has spawned a series of code changes in the Android Trade Federation (Tradefed/TF). While the sweet-themed codename means little, it’s a fun little tradition from the early days of Android.

While there are no details on what to expect from the 2024 Android update, Rahman says Google is always looking forward and working on new improvements and features. If these features did not reach the current build, there is always the possibility that they will be carried over to the next update or never reach the operating system. So, Android users will have to wait to see what new features and improvements ‘Vanilla Ice Cream’ will bring.

The code changes on Tradefed show that the Android testing platform has been updated with a new version that directly references the Android 15 codename. However, this does not give us an idea of ​​what we can expect from the update.

While we’re looking forward to Vanilla Ice Cream, we’re getting a fresh taste of Android 14’s upside-down cake. The first preview of this update was released less than a month ago and features screenshot scrolling, redesigned notifications, and improved privacy settings.

As a result, the appearance of “Vanilla Ice Cream” recalls Android’s tradition of using sweet codenames for its updates, and is creating excitement among Android users who are curious about the new features and improvements the update will bring. As Android is constantly working to improve its operating system, users can look forward to the future of mobile technology.
