After the Android 9 Pie, all the following versions of Android will have numeral names hereafter. Google has also announced that its upcoming program will be named Android 10, followed by android 11.

It seems like Google will follow the steps of other operating system providers for its new Android program. It is practically giving up its unique branding style for Android.

Apparently, the previous dessert names of their OS were problematic to its users as they were not intuitively clear to them. They were confused about which version of Android they were using.

Besides, Google is also changing the logo of the platform by adopting a more modern look. A Google blog post reported that the Android robot would be getting a different shade of green while the Android text will become black. The new logo will be used for general branding in the coming weeks when Google will finally release Android 10.
