Google to reveal the N' in Android N

Given that it was crowdsourced, the N' could be called nutella or nougat.

Google is all set to reveal what the ‘N’ in Android N stands for.

In a tweet posted by Google via @Android, the company said that it will reveal the official name of Android N in just ‘a few weeks’, having concluded it from its crowdsourcing #NameAndroidN campaign.

Looking at Android’s previous versions, dubbed-Ice Cream Sandwich, KitKat, Jellybean and Lollipop, it is being speculated that the ‘N’ could possibly stand for another sweetner. Given that it was crowdsourced, the ‘N’ could be called nutella or nougat.

In March 2016, two months ahead of its I/O developer conference, Google surprised everyone when it unveiled the preview build for the OS, and announced that it would release the preview updates every month till July 2016.

The updated version will also feature DPI scaling-which allows users to all the elements of the interface larger, a more-minimal design for notification, support for split-screen apps and a dark ‘Night Mode’ for late night browsing.
