April 2025 Android Security Update Available for Google Pixel Devices

We have entered a new month, so that means yet another new Pixel update is on the way. This time, we have the April Pixel update for all of Google’s still-supported devices. Since last month was a quarterly patch and Pixel Feature Drop, this one shouldn’t be major, although it could contain several bug fixes that may have been introduced in last month’s large update.

As for which devices are receiving the April Pixel update, the full list includes the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, Pixel 6a, Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, Pixel 7a, Pixel 8 and 8 Pro, Pixel 8a, Pixel Fold, and Pixel Tablet, as well as the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold. With the Pixel 9a official for today, it has also joined the party with its first builds.

This new April update for Google’s Pixel line-up will begin hitting devices starting today and could then take a week to finish rollout depending on carrier and device. We always hope these things ship immediately after Google pushes factory images, but there really are carrier hang-ups from time-to-time that slow things down. We’ll do our best to update you as rollouts arrive.

Below, we have each build listed for April, depending on carrier and region.
