While some brands like Samsung are now publishing only Android 15 for flagship devices, the next Google version of Android 16, is fast approaching. We are already well in the Android 16 beta cycle, and Google has confirmed that the final version will arrive in June 2025.
Although Android 16 does not provide a major visual overhaul, it should pack several improvements under the hood. Now a new report suggests that such an improvement could be a faster application installation.

A new Android safety feature is on the way
The installation of applications on high -end devices was not a problem, thanks to faster equipment. However, low -end phones often have difficulties with slow application installations due to lower processors and limited storage. Android 16 can tackle this problem with a new feature aimed at optimizing application installations for low -end phones.
Android 16 will speed up the installation of the application
By discharging more cloud work
According to a report by Android Expert Mishaal Rahman (via Android authority), Android 16 can introduce a new feature called Cloud compilation to speed up the installation of the application. Currently, when you install an application, your phone must process certain parts of the application (called application artefacts) to make sure it works well. This step takes more time on the devices with lower equipment.
The Cloud compilation aims to unload this treatment to the cloud. Instead of compilation of compilation artifacts during installation, Android 16 will download the pre -treated artifacts directly from the Play Store with the application files. Although this can slightly increase the size of the application file, it will significantly accelerate the installation time.

Rahman notes that the functionality is not yet live, probably because Google still has to configure the Play Store to generate and serve these artifacts. The configuration of this infrastructure can take time, but the signs indicate that the functionality is coming soon. It can also be opted for first, because it forces users to download a little more data by application.
In addition to the Cloud compilation, Android 16 is defined to introduce other features such as faster fingerprint unlock on the Pixel devices and an improved desktop window on Android tablets. We will probably hear from these features on Google I / O 2025, which takes place next month.
