Android Studio 3.3 Beta 1 available


Android Studio 3.3 Beta 1 is now available in the Beta channel.

If you have Android Studio set up to receive updates on the Beta channel, you can get the update by choosing Help > Check for Updates (Android Studio > Check for Updates on Mac). Otherwise, you can download it here.

This update includes the following change in behavior:
  • CPU Profiler - New live allocation memory tracking options

    To improve app performance while profiling, you can now choose a mode for live memory allocation tracking on devices running API level 26 or higher. Choose from Full (all object memory allocations), Sampled (periodic sampling of allocations), or None.


This update includes the following bug fixes:
  • The Project window was occasionally crashing when sorting files by type.
  • CMake was throwing a NullPointerException when enabling Only sync the active variant (for current project) experimental feature.
  • D8 was incorrectly failing to compile with the following error message: com.android.tools.r8.errors.Unreachable: Unexpected type adjustment from java.lang.Object to com.android.transport.model.entity.ApproveDelegator[]
