To enroll, users must join the Android Beta Program by visiting google.com/android/beta and signing in with their Google account. Once enrolled, eligible devices will receive an over-the-air notification. Installation may occur within an hour but could take longer depending on network conditions.

Participants are advised to back up device data before installing the beta. The stable version of Android 16 remains scheduled for a later release.
