Our port to Android 16 QPR1 which was to AOSP on November 11 is currently being tested internally. Several important regressions have been discovered and we're working on resolving those before we release it for public testing. A few minor features also still need to be ported.

Android 17 is building a new Contacts Picker to keep your address book private
Android 17 may finally let you share only specific contacts with apps thanks to a new Contacts Picker tool. Here's how it may work.

Fedora 43 was released yesterday, but we're not switching to an F43 base yet. F43 includes a switch from RPM 4 to RPM 6. This includes a change that breaks upgrades on atomic. A fix is in the works: github.com/coreos/rpm-o...
We'll switch to an F43 base once a fix is merged, tested, and shipped.

We have a thread already debunking this recent line of attack on GrapheneOS at bsky.app/profile/grap.... GrapheneOS quickly provided the June security patches, was ported to Android 16 and is working with a major Android OEM. It's not dying and we haven't said or implied it is.
Many companies and individuals are trying to mislead people about the future of GrapheneOS to promote their insecure products and services. GrapheneOS is not going anywhere. We've made it clear we're shipping Android 16 soon and that the supported devices will remain supported.

Apple stores which devices/users install which apps. They have the device IDs. US government could obtain a list of people who installed the app if a court authorized it. Not clear what they mean by having to storing device IDs. Those IDs aren't accessible to Android apps.

Sorry, there will not be an Android version because there is no way to provide 100% anonymity. Each person's device ID would have to be stored and that information becomes discoverable should the government issue a subpoena.
Only iOS made this possible and completely protects the users.

Our initial highly experimental release based on Android 16 has been published for all sixteen of the supported devices (Pixel 6 through Pixel 9a). It should only be installed on a spare device you don't depend on. It won't brick devices but there will be broken functionality.

For the non-WebRTC issue being abused by Yandex, Chromium 137 shipped a fix for it behind a feature flag that's being gradually rolled out. We can roll this out to 100% of Vanadium users through a Vanadium Config update. We can start Alpha testing for that new flag later today.
