This is a minor OS update that improves security and functionality. It is a preparatory step for the larger QPR1 update with a new design and enhanced features.

Android 16 includes a number of updates that improve user convenience and security. In particular, new battery health indicators will help you monitor its health and plan for replacement in a timely manner. The Live Activities feature allows you to track current events in applications without fully opening them.
Advanced Protection mode provides enhanced protection against phishing and malware, and quick access to Google Wallet makes it easy to manage your payments.
The interface has received cosmetic updates. Bigger changes will come with the Android 16 QPR1 update in the coming months.
The exact start time for the update has not yet been announced, but users are advised to charge their devices and connect to the Internet.
We previously reported on a new variant of the Android Trojan Crocodilus that has learned to replace trusted subscribers by adding fake entries to the victim's contact book. This way, attackers can impersonate "bank support" and increase the chances of successful fraud.
