Feedback and issues
Your feedback is a crucial part of the Android 16 Developer Preview! Please let us know of any issues you find or ideas for making Android a better platform.
The sooner we hear from you, the more of your feedback we can integrate into the final release.
Ways to give feedback
Issue tracker
Android Beta Feedback app
Issue tracker
Use the issue tracker to create new issues and to view, track, and vote for issues that you and other developers have created.
Create and vote for issues
Before creating your own issue, check the release notes and search the lists of top open issues and recently created issues to see if someone else has already reported it.
You can subscribe and vote for an issue by starring it in the issue tracker. For more information, see Subscribing by starring an issue. For general help with Google Issue Tracker, see the documentation.
Due to the volume of feedback, submitted issues from any channel might not receive a response and issues might be closed upon release of the next build. This process allows our teams to focus on issues that are still reproducible in the latest release.
If your feedback is closed and you're still experiencing the issue on the latest build, please check the release notes and the lists of top open issues and recently created issues and star the issue if it already exists. If not, please submit your feedback again.

Android Beta Feedback app

To help Google manage feedback volumes and control for duplicates, new issues submitted through the Android Beta Feedback app remain separate from those reported through the issue tracker until reviewed and verified.
