It applies only to <strong>Nexus devices<\/strong>: Nexus 7 and Nexus 7 2013 (WiFi\/mobile), Nexus 4, and Nexus 10. It&#8217;s not a major update, and won&#8217;t have any major impact on the look or feel of the system.

You should see the update available here. As Android Police points out, while there is nothing major in the update, it&#8217;s probably Google&#8217;s response to getting feedback from the millions of users who are now using KitKat.<\/p>\n<p>Android 4.4 &#8216;KitKat&#8217;, the first version of Google&#8217;s mobile OS to get an official brand name tie-in, was released to the general public at the end of October. As we said in <a href=\"http:\/\/features.en.softonic.com\/android-4-4-kitkat-review\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">our review<\/a>, it represents &#8216;a true refinement of Google\u2019s mobile operating system,&#8217; further integrating Google services smoothly into the Android experience. It&#8217;s also more efficient, with a lower RAM requirement than earlier Android versions.<\/p>\n<h4>RELATED STORIES<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/news.en.softonic.com\/android-kitkat-keyboard-available-in-google-play\">Android KitKat keyboard available in Google Play<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/features.en.softonic.com\/android-4-4-kitkat-review\">Android 4.4 KitKat review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/news.en.softonic.com\/android-4-4-kitkat-phone-dialer-could-display-ads\">Android 4.4 KitKat phone dialer could display ads<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/h4>\n<p>[Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/2013\/11\/19\/google-releases-kitkat-4-4-bugfix-update-krt16s-for-nexus-devices-factory-images-binaries-and-aosp-are-already-up\/\">Android Police<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Android KitKat is being updated, in the form of Bugfix Update KRT16S.
