Android "P" is the upcoming ninth major version of the Android operating system. It was first announced by Google on March 7, 2018[3] and the first developer preview was released on the same day.[4] This is expected to have final release on next Google I/O developer conference.There are two things we know for sure about the next Android’s name: it will start with the letter “P” and it will be a dessert food. So it will be named as "Android Popsicle".
