Google dropped the Android 12 on us showcasing what we can expect to see with the upcoming Android OS. Furthermore, Android 12 is shaping up to be one of the biggest updates to the platform in recent years thanks to the Material You design that it showed off at the I/O event.

Google rolled out the Android 12 Beta 1 update right after the announcement for the Pixels along with a few other OEMs who’re participating in the beta program such as Xiaomi, OnePlus, Vivo, and Oppo.

Naturally, many users rushed to download the beta 1 update on eligible devices thinking that they’ll get to check out the all-new Material You design.

But to their disappointment, the new Material You elements are only visible in some areas of the UI.
