In recent times, Google has become quite transparent about its efforts to make Android a secure platform and continuously provides security patches for Android.
For everyone whose devices are running on Android Marshmallow 6.0 or later, you can check which security patches your device is currently up to.
Google’s Nexus and Pixel devices are the first to receive the latest Android updates. Likewise, these security patches were first released for Nexus and Pixel devices, and if you own a device from some other manufacturer, you’ll be left to them.
Every company must customize security patch updates to device specifications after approval — making the process longer.
Find out your device’s security patch
- Open the settings menu on your smartphone.
- Scroll to the bottom, find ‘About phone’.
- Find ‘Android Security Patch Level’ and check the date of the latest security patch for your device.
The date on the security patch is not the date you may have received the Google security patch, but the date the patch was first released — in most cases, you will receive the patch later than the date it was released. release.
Google states that Pixel and Nexus devices receive “security patches for at least three years from when the device was first available” or “at least 18 months since the Google Store last sold the device.” ” — any of these two times is longer.
If you’re having trouble with an old security update, you can check for updates, but in most cases you’ll wait for the device manufacturer to roll out the update.
Writing on forums sometimes helps, as these days dealing with feedback/complaints translates into a loyal customer base.
