Google has successfully released all four of their Android developer previews, which means the public can expect the final version of Andriod O to be released soon. In the past couple of days, reports surfaced claiming the release of the much awaited operating system can be delayed but according to recent media reports, the release of Android O is scheduled for 21 of this month.

According to Android Police’s David Ruddock and the famous tipster Evan Blass, the name of the latest update will be revealed alongside the final release. Multiple sources agree that the Pixel devices are scheduled to receive Android O upgrade first on August 21 while other compatible devices will receive the update soon after. The Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, Nexus Player and Pixel C are some of the devices that have been receiving developer preview releases over the past couple of months. These may also be the first devices to get the final Android O upgrade. As for the name of the operating system, several predictions have been floating around including Android Oatmeal Cookie and Android Oreo. Some reports also suggested Android might completely deviate from tradition and call it Android Octopus.

This major Android release will bring a ton of new features that will be both visible and under the hood. Overall performance and battery life received greater focus this time around and will include a more aggressive and strict approach to managing apps that run in the background. The visible changes in the upgrade revolve around polishing the interface and interaction models such as dot badges, adaptive icons and notification groupings. The upcoming upgrade will also have a ‘Picture-in-Picture’ feature which will allow users to watch YouTube videos while using the phone normally, without having to activate the Split Screen feature.

The last week of August is packed with upcoming releases including the Samsung Galaxy Note 8, the LG V30 and the ASUS ZenFone 4 line. Rumors suggest that Apple will also be unveiling its iPhone 8 sometime in early September.

New Instagram Features Let Users Customize Profiles and Share Quietly

Instagram Grid

Instagram is rolling out two major features in June 2025 that promise to give users unprecedented creative control and privacy: grid rearranging and silent posting. The long-awaited grid rearranging tool allows users to freely drag and drop posts anywhere on their profile grid, breaking away from the traditional chronological order. This means users can now curate their profiles for a more visually appealing or thematic presentation, without the hassle of deleting and reposting content—an update especially welcomed by brands, creators, and anyone meticulous about their digital aesthetic.


In tandem, Instagram is introducing the “Post quietly to profile” feature, which lets users add photos and videos to their grid without notifying followers or pushing the content to their feeds. This silent posting option is ideal for those who want to document moments privately, experiment with new content, or maintain a cohesive grid without spamming their audience. It’s designed to reduce the pressure of public sharing, making Instagram a more comfortable space for personal expression and experimentation.

 

These updates reflect Instagram’s commitment to user empowerment and flexibility, responding directly to years of feedback. As Instagram head Adam Mosseri stated, the goal is to help users “create and share without added pressure,” giving them more freedom over how their content appears and how they engage with their audience.
