Why Did Android Stop Using Dessert Names?

Google explained in its blog that Android’s dessert names were not being properly understood by the global community. Google gave examples of the letters L and R which were not distinguishable when spoken in some languages.

Why did Google stop naming Android versions?

Google will no longer name its Android operating system releases after desserts, the company says in a blog post Thursday. Its next release, previously known as Android Q, will be called Android 10. Google says the change is meant to make the operating system names more accessible to its global users.

Why does Android 10 not have a name?

Bucking tradition, the next version of Google’s mobile software will not be named after a dessert. Plus, the logo is going from green to black. Say goodbye to pie and lollipops, because Google’s mobile platform is going on a diet.
