With the release of the second public beta, several other Android device makers opened their own Android 14 beta programs - including OnePlus, Oppo, Nothing, RealMe, and Xiaomi, to name a few. In this case, that's the Pixel 4a 5G, Pixel 5, Pixel 5a, Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro, Pixel 6a, Pixel 7, and Pixel 7 Pro, and the just-released Pixel 7a. Sorry, Samsung and Motorola fans whether it's developer previews or public betas, Google only makes prerelease Android versions directly available for its Pixel phones.

Nevertheless, whether you want to forge ahead into the world of Android 14 betas today or further down the road, here's how to go about it. Google expects to reach 'platform stability' by June, which is the stage where the betas should be more polished and stable as Android 14 moves closer to its final release. We're only at the second Android 14 beta out of several more that are expected to arrive over the next few weeks, and you can jump in at any time. Google makes it clear that these betas 'may contain errors and defects that can affect the normal functioning of your device.' Most developers have secondary devices they can install betas on for testing purposes. The recent betas may be more easily available, but they're still intended primarily to help developers get their apps ready. Unless you enjoy living on the edge, we'd recommend steering clear of installing it on any phone you depend on - especially this early in the game.

While it's unlikely to blow up your phone, you should still expect glitches, half-baked features, and other oddities at this point in the beta cycle. But don't be fooled by this easy installation process - Android 14 is still beta software, and we're still in the early stages. While the Android 14 developer previews had to be installed over a wired connection from a PC, public Android 14 betas can be installed over-the-air (OTA), just like any other Android update. A computer running Windows, macOS, or Linux with Google Chrome and 10GB of available storage (optional)
