While Android 15 is already on QPR2 Beta 1, Google this afternoon released QPR1 Beta 3.1 for Pixel devices. This is a “minor update” with several bug fixes that comes almost a month after the last major release.
This is a relatively last-minute update ahead of the Android 15 QPR1 launch in December. Arguably most users on the Android Beta Program have already moved to the QPR2 preview, which is pretty stable and adds the big Modes redesign.
To get QPR1 Beta 3.1, Google says:
If you were previously enrolled in Android 15 Beta (and have not opted-out), you will automatically receive QPR1 Beta 3.1 and any future Beta updates.
