During the initial phase of Android 14 beta rollouts, Vivo was never talked about as much as Pixel and OnePlus. However, for the last couple of years, Vivo and its subbrand iQOO have been performing exceptionally well in the software updates department, and this year is no different. Within weeks of Google launching the first Android 14 beta, a couple of Vivo devices have already received the beta program. Moreover, a lot of other devices will get the betas in the near future. So without any further delay, let’s install the Android 14 beta in your Vivo X90 pro and iQOO 11.

On the other hand, it’s worth noting that these beta builds are prone to several bugs. For instance, there might be app compatibility issues. Because beta builds are meant for developer testing, they require a lot of refinements before public use. As a result of rigorous testing, public launches are comparatively more stable. Unfortunately if the bugs and issues are too much to deal with, you might want to roll back to the earlier stable Android 13 build, and you’ll have to follow the steps below.
