Google has begun distributing a new patch for its Android 16 QPR3 Beta 1.1, addressing a specific stability issue for enrolled Pixel users. This incremental update follows last week’s initial beta release and focuses on resolving a problematic bug that was causing application crashes.

The new build, identified as CP11.251114.007, replaces the previous .006 version. Its primary purpose is to fix a change that caused some apps to crash immediately upon startup. This targeted correction aims to improve the daily usability of the beta software for testers. The over-the-air update file size is approximately 57.8 MB for devices like the Pixel 9a.

It’s important to note that this release does not include a new security patch level; it remains on the December 2025 security update. The beta remains available for a wide range of supported Pixel hardware. This includes models from the Pixel 6 series all the way through the latest Pixel 10 lineup, encompassing standard phones, Pro variants, the Pixel Tablet, and Fold editions.

Users who are currently participating in the Android Beta for Pixel program will receive this version as an automatic OTA update to their devices. This rapid follow-up release demonstrates an ongoing effort to refine the Android 16 experience based on early feedback from the beta community.
