Android Easter Egg

Android Easter Eggs are hidden features or mini-games included in the Android operating system by Google. These Easter Eggs are often playful and are meant to be discovered by users for fun. Each major Android version typically has its own Easter Egg. Here are some of the Android Easter Eggs:

  1. Android 2.3 Gingerbread: The first known Android Easter Egg was a simple zombie-themed painting that you could reveal by tapping repeatedly on the “Android version” in the About Phone section of the settings.
  2. Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich: This Easter Egg introduced a “Nyan Cat” animation that you could access by tapping repeatedly on the Android version in the About Phone section. It was a nod to the popular internet meme.
  3. Android 5.0 Lollipop: In this version, Google introduced the “Flappy Bird” clone as the Easter Egg. You could access it by going to the About Phone section and tapping the Android version repeatedly.
  4. Android 6.0 Marshmallow: This Easter Egg was a simple Flappy Bird-style game featuring a bugdroid (the Android mascot) that you could play when you went into the system’s settings, tapped on “About Phone,” and then tapped the version number.
  5. Android 7.0 Nougat: Nougat introduced a cat-collecting mini-game. You could access it by going to the About Phone section and repeatedly tapping on the Android version. You could then access a cat-catching game from the Quick Settings menu.
  6. Android 8.0 Oreo: The Oreo Easter Egg was an octopus that floated around the screen. You could access it in the same way as previous versions by tapping repeatedly on the Android version.
  7. Android 9.0 Pie: The Pie Easter Egg was a simple drawing app where you could draw with a variety of colors. You could access it by going to the About Phone section and tapping the Android version.
  8. Android 10: Android 10’s Easter Egg was a customizable drawing app that allowed you to create your own designs. It could be accessed in the same way as previous Easter Eggs.
  9. Android 11: The Android 11 Easter Egg was a virtual game of “Nougat Land,” a callback to the Nougat version. It was a game where you could control a character collecting various desserts.

My knowledge is based on information available up to September 2021, and there may have been new Easter Eggs introduced in subsequent Android versions. To find the Easter Egg in your specific Android version, you can typically go to the “About Phone” section in your device’s settings and tap repeatedly on the Android version number.
