Android 16 February 2026 update rolling out: No Pixel bug fixes

The year in updates continues with the February 2026 security patch for Android 16 QPR2 on the Pixel 7a, Tablet, Fold, 8, 8 Pro, 8a, 9, 9 Pro, 9 Pro XL, 9 Pro Fold, 9a, Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and Pixel 10 Pro Fold.

No issues are listed in the Android 16 February Security Bulletin. The dedicated bulletin for Google devices lists one security patch for the “VPU Driver” (CVE-2026-0106, High severity).

Curiously, there are no bug fixes or other functional improvements this month in what might be a first. The big update is Android 16 QPR3 expected in March.


The January 2026 update includes bug fixes and improvements for Pixel users – see below for details
