See the References section concerning TchSpot, I have a hunch this is website self-promotion, so I leave this upto an Admin to remove the reference, if my suspicions are correct -- whois: TchSpot is Kumar -- see Kumar's activity WurmWoode^T 19:49, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In the context of the editor's history, unambiguously spam. I have removed it and warned the editor. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 20:53, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Name guessing?

I think it's gonna be Pie.

Until its officially announced, we cannot speculate in an encyclopoedia article. Nixinova T C 20:33, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Update "Support Status" of "Supported" to "Unsupported", with citation of https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/2022-02-01. The latest security bulletin indicates that Android Pie is no longer updated with security patches. Npars (talk) 14:51, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Npars: Sorry, could you point out to me where it says this in the security bulletin? I can't find anything that'd show that, but maybe I'm tired or something. --Ferien (talk) 20:10, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: I also can't find that in the source you've provided. Please re-open when you can point us to a correct source. casualdejekyll 15:36, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The only thing I can see when comparing the previous month is "Updated AOSP version" column does not include AOSP version 9 (Android 9.0 which is Pie). However, the omittance of mention does not mean it's no longer support. – The Grid (talk) 17:41, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Google does not explicitly announce when a version is no longer supported, they just stop releasing security patches for that version. You can see that the article for Android Oreo also has an "Unsupported" status with a link to a Security Bulletin that contains a list of CVE patches without including Oreo (Android 8 / 8.1). It appears that the status for Pie has now been updated without the citation being correctly changed: see diff - Npars (talk) 17:10, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I still would think it's original research to say it's no longer supported because it's not stated. – The Grid (talk) 04:50, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Change support status to unsupported. Pie's last update was in January 2022. It did not receive the February updates, this deemed end of life. 24.229.141.102 (talk) 23:04, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit semi-protected}} template. See discussion above. RudolfRed (talk) 23:30, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
