Google announced today the availability of the second beta version of the upcoming Android Q (most probably versioned 10) mobile operating system with more improvements and new features.
 
Coming more than two weeks after the first beta release, Android Q beta 2 is here today to with an updated SDK (Software Development Kit) for application developers, the usual bug fixes and optimizations, as well as a bunch of new features for early adopters and bleeding-edge users to test drive on their devices. It also includes the security patches for April 2019.
 
"Today we're releasing Android Q Beta 2 and an updated SDK for developers. It includes the latest bug fixes, optimizations, and API updates for Android Q, along with the April 2019 security patches. You'll also notice isolated storage becoming more prominent as we look for your wider testing and feedback to help us refine that feature," said Dave Burke, VP of Engineering.

Android Q Beta 2 adds a new way to multitask called Bubbles, which lets users prioritize information and keep an eye over ongoing tasks, enables Scoped Storage for new app installs by default to allow them to run in a private sandbox without permission, a new emulator with support for foldable devices, sharesheet improvements, as well as directional and zoomable microphones.
