Today we're releasing the first beta of Android 17, continuing our work to build a platform that prioritizes privacy, security, and refined performance.

Today, we’re announcing a suite of upgrades to the Google Play Console and beyond, giving you greater visibility into your financial performance and specific, data-backed steps to improve it.

To further help bring your ML Kit Prompt API use cases to production, we are excited to announce Automated Prompt Optimization (APO) targeting On-Device models on Vertex AI. Automated Prompt Optimization is a tool that helps you automatically find the optimal prompt for your use cases.
