Following the stable release of Android 13 to AOSP, we continue to update the platform with fixes and improvements that are then rolled out to supported devices. These releases happen on a quarterly cadence through Quarterly Platform Releases (QPRs), which are delivered both to AOSP and to Google Pixel devices as part of Feature Drops.
Although these updates don't include app-impacting API changes, we provide images of the latest QPR beta builds so you can test your app with these builds as needed.
To find OTA images for already-released, stable versions of the platform, see Full OTA Images for Nexus and Pixel Devices.
This page provides links to over-the-air (OTA) Google Pixel device images and describes how to apply an OTA update to a supported device. Applying an OTA image can help you recover a device that received an OTA update for an Android 13 QPR Beta build but would not start up after the update was installed. If you are trying to get Android 13 QPR3 on your device but you aren't trying to recover from a failed OTA update, see Get Android 13 QPR beta builds instead.
Builds are only available for the following Pixel devices:
- Pixel 4a and 4a (5G)
- Pixel 5 and 5a
- Pixel 6 and 6 Pro
- Pixel 6a
- Pixel 7 and 7 Pro
After you've installed a beta build to your Pixel device, your device is automatically enrolled in the Android Beta for Pixel program and offered continuous over-the-air (OTA) updates to the latest beta builds (including QPRs) until you choose to unenroll that device from the program. We also deliver OTA images at each milestone, so you can choose the approach that works best for your test environment.
Use the following links and instructions to update your supported device to the latest build. See Get Android 13 QPR beta builds for other ways to get QPR3 for testing and development.
