Android KitKat is being updated, in the form of Bugfix Update KRT16S. It applies only to Nexus devices: Nexus 7 and Nexus 7 2013 (WiFi/mobile), Nexus 4, and Nexus 10. It’s not a major update, and won’t have any major impact on the look or feel of the system. However, if you own one of the listed devices, it’s recommended to carry it out.
To see if the update has rolled out to your device yet, go to Settings, About and then System Updates. You should see the update available here. As Android Police points out, while there is nothing major in the update, it’s probably Google’s response to getting feedback from the millions of users who are now using KitKat.
Android 4.4 ‘KitKat’, the first version of Google’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 our review, it represents ‘a true refinement of Google’s mobile operating system,’ further integrating Google services smoothly into the Android experience. It’s also more efficient, with a lower RAM requirement than earlier Android versions.
