It has become customary for Google’s Android operating system to give new versions sweet-sounding codenames, and it appears that this practice will continue with the upcoming edition, which will be referred to as Android 15. Recent sources suggest that “Vanilla Ice Cream” is the internal codename for Google’s Android 15 operating system update. This should not come as a surprise given that Google has been giving its Android releases names based on sweet treats ever since the operating system’s infancy.
Although if the codenames might be amusing and bring back fond memories for Android users who have been using the platform for a long time, they do not necessarily provide any hint of what to anticipate from the update itself. There is not much information available about the next Android 15 version; nonetheless, it is well known that Google is continuously working on new updates and features for its widely used operating system.

It is anticipated that Android 15 will be released some time in 2024, however given the current climate, it is difficult to predict what kinds of new capabilities and enhancements the upgrade will include. Yet there is one thing that can be said for certain: Google will continue to innovate and improve its Android operating system, just as it has been doing from the very beginning.
While the fact that the significance of the codenames based on sweet treats may not be as great as it previously was, Android fans can still find some fun in the creativity behind these names. And who doesn’t love a good dessert?
In conclusion, the codename “Vanilla Ice Cream” given to Android 15 is a delicious throwback to the operating system’s more carefree days, and we can’t wait to find out what the future has in store for this forward-thinking operating system.
