Android Oreo (codenamed Android O during development) is the eighth major release and the 15th version of the Android mobile operating system.
It was initially unveiled as an alpha quality developer preview in March 2017 and later made available to the public, on August 21, 2017.
It contains a number of major features, including notification channels, picture-in-picture support for video, performance improvements, and battery usage optimization, and support for autofillers, Bluetooth 5, system-level integration with VoIP apps, wide color gamuts, and Wi-Fi Aware. Android Oreo also introduces two major platform features: Android Go – a software distribution of the operating system for low-end devices – and support for implementing a hardware abstraction layer.
As of August 2023 Android Oreo (which has ceased receiving security updates as of October 2021) ran on a combined 4.36% of Android devices (1.07% on Android 8.0 and 3.21% on Android 8.1).[3]
