If you have been an Android user since its early stages, you might already know that Google has been fond of dessert names for its Android versions for a long time. Although the company ditched the tradition with Android 10, what you might not know is that it still uses the dessert names corresponding to the Android versions internally. Last year, we saw that Google refers to its upcoming Android 13 version as “Tiramisu” internally. Now, recent Android Gerrit commits suggest that Android 14 will be called “Upside Down Cake.” Here are the details.
According to a recent report by XDA Developers, those working on Android 14 at Google recently mentioned the internal dessert name of Android 14, which is expected to release next year, in some commits on the Android Gerrit platform. As per the commits, Android 14 or Android U has an internal codename of “Upside Down Cake.”
Although it may sound bizarre, we suspect that Google did not have many options for the name. It is worth mentioning that Google chooses the dessert name of the Android version depending on the version initial, which is “U” in this case. Android 13 is version “T,” hence, the name “Tiramisu.”
