I’ve been using the Android 14 Beta for a while now so nothing really new to me for now, but what I liked since the beta is that the battery life got better.

The ability to give apps permissions on a per-file basis is also cool, although it made some apps unusable probably because they aren’t supporting that right now (but maybe that changed or will change soon now that the stable release is out).

So what are the changes you noticed the most and which ones do you like or hate so far?

I have one from like 5 years ago. It works with my Pixel 5. I’m getting the 8 so I hope it works with that too

From everything I could gather, there was some sort of issue that broke the pixel stand in Android 13 for some users. It would still connect, but not charge. All other wireless chargers I had worked fine. I did the usual delete data and cache, pair and setup again, reboot, etc. Once Android 14 installed, it’s been back to normal functionality for me.

Sounds right. I got my stand years ago and it sat in a box the last 3 years at least and I didn’t pull it out again until about a month ago - a month before Android 14 - well after multiple patches to 13
