Android 15 codename revealed, it’s ‘Vanilla Ice Cream’
Google’s Android versions in the past were known by their dessert names. It all started with Android 1.5, which was nicknamed Cupcake, but then, unfortunately, Google dropped the dessert naming scheme years later with Android 9.
However, behind the scene, Google still internally has dessert codenames for every Android version. For example: the Android 13 is called Tiramisu and the Android 14 is being codenamed Upside down cake.
Now, Mishal Rahman has discovered the codename for the upcoming Android 15 V. The Android version will be internally called ‘Vanilla Ice Cream’.
