So far, Google has launched two developer previews and eight betas for Android 13, with the eighth beta landing on July 13. These were early versions of the operating system. However, the latest beta is a release candidate, which means it is very nearly complete.
Given how far along the program has progressed, you could feel eager for the remainder of the Android 13 timetable and the release date of the stable version.
We’ve put all the information we currently know about Android 13’s release timetable below.
The approximate Android 13 schedule you see above was provided to us by Google. Overall, it’s a far quicker schedule than what we observed for Android 12 the previous year. Google has so far adhered closely to the plan, accomplishing each milestone. Therefore, unless there are any small point enhancements that might be released, this month’s beta should be the final.
If there are no significant setbacks, Android 13’s stable release should occur around August 2022.

The stable release of Android 12 took place on October 19, 2021, for comparison’s sake. But there was a big change from Android 11 to Android 12. Given that the transition from Android 12 to Android 13 doesn’t seem to be as severe, it’s extremely likely that Google will move.
In the meantime, here are the significant Android 13 schedule milestones we’ve seen so far:
