Google announced today it will unveil the name of the next version of Android.
During Google I/O, Dave Burke, vice president of engineering at Google, stated, “One of the hardest parts is coming up with a name… We’re inviting the world to submit their ideas.” The company opened up voting for the name of Android N to the public and today will reveal the winning name.
Scheduled to be available later this summer, Android N — which could be Nutella, Nugget or another tasty N named sweet — follows Cupcake, Donut, Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Ice Cream Sandwich, Jelly Bean, KitKat, Lollipop, and Marshmallow.
Update: Google has announced that Android N is now officially known as Nougat. Here is a pic of the Android Nougat statue outside Google’s HQ. In addition, Google has also confirmed that Android Nougat is also Android 7.0 (check out the video below at the 0.43 mark)
