Following last week’s release, Android 17 QPR1 Beta 6 is rolling out today for Pixel devices. For developers, this build introduces the Platform Stability milestone with finalized APIs.

Android 17 QPR1 Beta 6 resolves the following issues:

• Users were unable to select multiple spell checker languages. (Issue #147312111)
• Pressing the device volume buttons within the Clock app failed to trigger the expected user interface actions. (Issue #527400457, Issue #527395501, Issue #524895625)
• Rapidly swiping through the media carousel caused visual glitches in the Quick Settings layout and settings icon by improving animation and layout state handling during rapid transitions. (Issue #514947195)
• An issue in WindowManagerGlobal that resulted in app crashes. (Issue #516639947)
• Enabling the Wi-Fi hotspot displayed a generic default SSID instead of the user’s saved custom name. (Issue #485168823)

Users can report issues via the Android Beta Feedback app on Pixel devices. Access it from the application drawer or Quick Settings to file bugs in Google’s issue tracker. There’s also the Android Beta community on Reddit.
