How to download and install Android 13 on your phone

To download and install Android 13 on your Pixel phone, first make sure your phone is connected to a stable Wi-Fi network and powered on. The battery needs to be at least 50% charged for over-the-air (OTA) updates.

To start installing Android 13, launch the Settings app. You may install the app directly on your home screen, but if not, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to access your app drawer and scroll through your apps until you find Settings.

Next, scroll down and tap System > System Updates. If an update is available, it should load here in a few seconds. If not, click Check for Updates. Also, make sure your device has enough storage to download and install the update, otherwise you won’t be able to continue. Typically update files are several gigabytes in size.

Finally, click the green Download and Install button in the lower right corner. The Android 13 system will then begin to download and install, which may take 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the size and condition of the phone. After your phone restarts, you’ll be running Android 13.

Note: If you haven’t seen the Android 13 update, don’t worry. As long as you have a compatible Pixel phone, you’ll get it — it just might take some time to arrive.
