Have a break have a KitKat

Cupcake, Donut,Eclairs,Froyo,Gingerbread,Honeycomb,Icecream Sandwich,Jelly bean.As everyone finds chocolate so tempting here comes the new version of Android 4.4 named KitKat. Throughout the Jelly Bean reign, we've been gathering rumors of the next major Android update, Android 5.0. The word was that this release was being developed under the dessert-related codename of Key Lime Pie but then on 3 September 2013, Google announced that Android 4.4 KitKat would precede Android 5, so the Key Lime Pie name looks to have been ditched



We're still expecting an Android 5 release, of course, but with different features, a new code name and a later release date than we were originally anticipating.

Nestle-Android how it worked

The story goes that the Android development team then thought about KitKat and pitched the idea to Nestlé who jumped straight on board. t's a deal that works on both sides, with Nestlé running a promotional campaign  on confectionery to win Android devices or Google Play credit, while Google gets to use the icon image of the KitKat bar, now in Android form.

Some may see it as a shrewd marketing move, others as Google trying to express its fun and playful side. Either way, Google's promise that Android 4.4 will be sweet is very much literal. Quickly following the reveal of the Android KitKat statue, Google updated it's Android page announcing that KitKat was coming.

Android 4.4 KitKat will almost certainly debut on the Nexus 5, which is rumored to launch on 14 October. The date is yet to be confirmed by Google, but October fits the launch pattern for previous Nexus devices. Nestle also posted on its Facebook KitKat page to expect a launch in October. Whether this is KitKat repeating the rumors, or stating fact, can't be determined.

There’s also been a build of KitKat - KRS74D - identified in a Chrome bug tracker site, spotted exclusively by myce. And in the last couple of days, a few credible screenshots have emerged of the messaging app and dialer. One theory is that 4.4 will be easier for the world’s handset manufacturers to integrate into their own road maps by offering broader firmware compatibility - so older handsets will be able to upgrade, and you’ll get faster updates on newer models.  You can also be fairly sure that 4.4 will mark updates to Android’s stock theme. Google has just updated the Android GMail app.

Merging the google with the notification screen,Moto X Voice activation,making interface even prettier,,handsome skin and smooth animations,are some of the features we’d be loved to see in KitKat. So it's looking increasingly like Android 4.4 KitKat won't be the radical overhaul some are expecting – and that the days of numbered Android updates bringing big changes could be... well... numbered.
