Een nieuwe testversie van Android 14 is verschenen. We zijn aangekomen bij Android 14 Beta 4.1. Wat opvalt is een lange lijst aan bugfixes en verbeteringen.
Android 14 Beta 4.1
Voordat Android 14 definitief uitgerold wordt naar de toestellen, test Google samen met gebruikers en fabrikanten de testversies. Eerst begon het met Developer Preview-versies, nu zijn we bij meer stabielere testversies aangekomen, in de vorm van bètaversies. Dat is vandaag ook het geval, met Android 14 Beta 4.1.
We krijgen een lange lijst met verbeteringen en bugfixes die de update met zich meebrengt. Benieuwd naar welke verbeteringen er allemaal doorgevoerd zijn, die zetten we hieronder voor je op een rij.

- Fixed an issue with ScrollView that caused the over scroll effect to get stuck after performing a fling gesture.
- Fixed issues that prevented Wi-Fi calling from working in some cases.
- Fixed an issue that caused the system to fail to transfer an animatable icon to the client when using SplashScreen#setOnExitAnimationListener.
- Fixed an issue that prevented notification groups from expanding properly in the notification shade.
- Fixed an issue that could cause the screen to flicker when launching an app that uses activity embedding.
- Fixed an issue that could cause the system UI to crash if one app in split-screen mode was closed by swiping up from the Overview screen.

- Fixed an issue when unlocking a device while TalkBalk is enabled where TalkBalk sometimes erroneously stated that the device was still locked before stating that the device was successfully unlocked.

- Fixed an issue where, when a user who had enabled Fingerprint Unlock tried to launch an activity from Quick Settings on the lock screen on a device that has an in-display fingerprint scanner, the sensor sometimes failed to activate, forcing the user to re-lock the device and unlock the device first before accessing Quick Settings.
- Fixed an issue where, when a user who had enabled both Fingerprint Unlock and Face Unlock tried to launch an intent by tapping on a notification and then authenticated using their face, the intent didn’t launch and the user was brought back to the lock screen.
