The Canary Channel is Google’s experimental Android track, and the features included here are under active development. Thus, the company clearly recommends not installing these builds on primary devices, as they can cause instability and unexpected problems.
What’s new in Android Canary 2604?
According to Google’s Mishaal Rahman, the new Android Canary build brings the following user-facing changes:
- When you clear all notifications, the old “No notifications” text is replaced by a new “You’re all set” message.
- App icon long-press menus are now more compact, with shortcuts at the beginning collapsed behind a new “Shortcuts” toggle.
- After expanding the shortcut, the Actions menu is also collapsed by default and can be revealed via the “Actions” toggle.
