April 2021 Android security patch here for Pixels

If you’re one of the people facing that bootup error, you’ll likely be very happy to see this update. However, if you’re upset that the April 2021 Android security patch is a little anemic, you’ll need to get excited for June. Assuming Google sticks with its usual schedule, we should see a feature drop then, which would likely bring a whole slew of goodies.
If you don’t want to wait for the OTA alert on your Pixel phone, you can always manually update. To download the factory image or OTA, click the appropriate link below. Don’t have a Pixel phone? The Google Pixel 4a costs just $349 and is one of our favorite phones from 2020.
