Android 15 goes cold and creamy for its dessert-themed code name

  • Android 15’s dessert-themed code name has dropped.
  • The next major OS update after Android 14 is known internally as Vanilla Ice Cream.
  • The code name was found in the AOSP as a series of code changes.

It’s hard to believe, but it’s been a month since Google released the first Developer Preview of Android 14. As such, there’s a good chance that most of the people reading this have not had the opportunity to try out Android 14 yet. Despite the fact that Google is still working on the next major OS update, it’s already looking ahead and has given Android 14’s successor the codename Vanilla Ice Cream.

If you’ve been keeping up with the history of Android, then you know the OS is usually accompanied by a code name. You also likely know that Google has a penchant for giving its code names a dessert theme. For example, version 1.5 was known as Cupcake, the following update was called Donut, and version 2.0 was named Eclair.
