Google has just introduced Android 13 Beta 1, aiming to improve privacy and security, as well as developer productivity. Alongside it, developers can start exploring the Privacy Sandbox Preview, a collection of technologies that improve user privacy while enabling personalized ads, says Google.
Android 13 Beta 1 introduces new, more granular permissions to access media files. In particular, whereas older Android version dumped all distinct media types under the same category, Android 13 explicitly differentiates three media file types: images and photos, videos, and audio files.
