Finally, We Have A Suitable Name For Android 9 "Pineapple Pie", What Is Google's Next Plan
Android 9 Latest Update: Android 9 “Pineapple Pie” Developer Preview Teasers Starts Popping Online
In middle last year "August", after the launch of Android 8 Oreo, the rumour of Google working on Android P popped up online. As at then, no one was unable to predict what Google may name it. As time goes on, suggestions also started coming out which lead us to write an article suggesting the top 15 names Google might dub the Android P.Merely 0.7 percent of Android users have hopped onto the Oreo train but this slow adoption is not slowing down Google’s efforts to tease Android P. Organizers of the upcoming Google I/O conference recently shared some clues about the dates of the event as well as tipped off that next Android version’s name could borrow something for an upside-down Pineapple cake, but that’s not all.
Now, it seems that the first developer preview of Android P could just be around the corner. This is apparent from a new glorious message shared in the Gerrit repository dedicated to Android Open Source Project (AOSP) which reads, “The future is now (2018 edition)“, tempting the developer community.
Just like earlier versions of Android, it is probable that the commits, and thus, initial mockups of the developer preview of Android P begin surfacing on the online repositories even before an official revealing by Google. We might not get to see all major developments in the early alpha builds, but they give a substantial outline of major changes. These major changes are usually the ones finalized – or at least strongly favored – for the final builds.
So far, the details about newer features are at the grace of guesswork. One aspect Google is likely to push strongly is the security against malware and the recently discovered CPU exploits. It would be an enchanting sight to see Google build intrinsic features that prevent against malicious software and give users higher control over the privacy of devices. The latter can be done by simplifying the permissions controls in Android.

Another prospect which Google might embrace is AI "Artificial Intelligent" and software-based deep learning to make Android experience more graceful. Chinese bigwig Xiaomi has already announced that it has begun developing the next version of MIUI with emphasis on AI and machine learning, and it wouldn’t be less than pleasant to see the same on stock Android.
