Pixel fans are always Google has announced that it will launch the beta program for the June Feature Drop on March 13th, 2023. Pixel users who are on the QPR2 Beta will automatically receive Android 13 QPR3 Beta 1 next week if they don’t exit the program by March 13th. However, the big news is that Google is changing the way to exit the Beta program without wiping the phone.

Previously, if users were going to exit the Android 13 QPR2 Beta program, they had to install the stable version of QPR2 before opting out of the Beta program. But now, if they want the stable version of QPR2, they will need to exit the Beta program first. To do this, before March 13th, users will need to go to www.google.com/android/beta and click on the rectangle that says “View your eligible devices.” They will then be taken to an image of their Pixel device with the words “Opt out” underneath. Once they tap on the button, that’s pretty much it. As long as users ignore all the other downgrade buttons, opting out will not force them to wipe their phones. However, users will still have to wait for the stable version of the QPR2 update (the March Feature Drop) to be released later this month.

If users refuse to opt out, they won’t receive the stable version of QPR2. If they can’t wait to return to the latest public version, they can simply tap on “downgrade OTA update,” but be warned that doing this will force users to wipe their phones. If they do nothing, users will receive the QPR3 Beta 1 update on Monday and they will be forced to stick with the Beta program until June 5th when the June Feature Drop should be released by Google, unless users want to wipe their phones clean. This is a significant change, and Google wants to make sure that users don’t accidentally wipe their data, so they are taking all the steps to cover their bases.
