Google has announced that Android 7.1 Nougat will come out by the end of October for the Nexus 5X and 6P phones as well as Google's Pixel C, with the remaining supporting phones getting support by December. Google also confirmed what 7.1 will feature. Besides Daydream VR support, 7.1 will focus on giving developers more options to spruce up their apps' functionality. You can now make custom shortcuts, much like the ones popping up in iOS via 3D Touch. There's also support for image keyboards so users can insert stickers or GIFs within apps. For carriers and calling apps, 7.1 has APIs for multi-endpoint calling and telephony configuration. While the 7.1 early look is intended for app makers under their Developer Preview program, anyone can apply on the Android Beta site to enroll. A release date for 7.1 is unknown at this time.
