  • The April 2023 security patches have been delayed for Google Pixel smartphones.
  • This is the second month in a row that security patches have been delayed.
  • Verizon appears to be rolling out the patches to older Pixels.

It seems Verizon is rolling out the April 2023 update for the Pixel 5, Pixel 4a, and Pixel 4a 5G. The carrier has posted build numbers on its website, as spotted by Droid-Life. The support pages for other Pixel devices, including the Pixel 7 and Pixel 6 series, still list the older March 2023 security patches. Meanwhile, we could not locate any reports from users receiving these updates yet on the older Pixels, but we’re optimistic that a rollout has begun from Verizon’s end.

Google is usually punctual with its monthly security patches for the Pixel series. The updates are released on the first Monday of the month, alongside the monthly Android Security Bulletin. For this month, the April 2023 Android Security Bulletin has promptly gone live, but the corresponding April security patches are nowhere to be found for the Pixel series.
