Google stops software update support for Pixel 4a phones

CTOnews.com, September 20 (Xinhua) Google did not push the September software update to the Pixel 4a (non-5G version) phone, confirming that support for the phone has been discontinued.

Google's Pixel 4a phone, which was released in 2020, is not on the list of Android 14 developer previews and public beta versions, and users are not allowed to participate in testing, so Google has long planned to eliminate the phone.

However, later Pixel 4a 5G phones will still be updated and support Android 14 developer preview and public beta plans.

Google does not list any specific changes or bug fixes for the September update, except to point out that "including security patches for Pixel users". The attached CTOnews.com version number is as follows:
