android

The version history of the Android mobile operating system began with the public release of its first beta on November 5, 2007. The first commercial version, Android 1.0, was released on September 23, 2008. The operating system is developed by Google on a yearly cycle since at least 2011. New major releases are announced at Google I/O along with its first public beta to supported Google Pixel devices. The stable version is then released later in the year.

    iSmart based on Android?!?!?

    Hello everyone, I have a ZS facelift from 04 -22. I noticed that the iSmart system in the Car is based on Android. Has anyone managed to penetrate the Android system? Since the system is based on Android, it should then be possible to install apps as APK files. Has anyone had any experience here?
