How to activate Android Easter eggs on your smartphone
It is worth remembering that Easter Eggs for Android can be activated by opening the application Setting enteringAbout the phone > Android version> and quickly pushes the option Android version (up to 10 times or by continuing to push for a few seconds, depending on the type of system). In the case of Easter Eggs, they activate when you click on the icon for a few seconds.

Summary:
Android 12
Still coming out on multiple devices, Android 12’s Easter Egg shows off one of the biggest changes to the system, the device you design. After being activated, the Hidden Surprise displays the clock widget. Bring it to 12:00 (noon / midnight) and the screen will display the type number using the wall colors or the color palette you defined.

Android 11
Although the beta version of Android 12 is already ready for development, we are still officially rolling out Android 11. Taking the form of numerical names, without sweets, the Easter egg here is almost a cat and mouse game. The name of the game is “Android Neko” and it has already appeared in Android Nougat.
Here you have to find “cat offers” and feed your cats. It is close to modern Tamagotchi.

Android 10
Android 10 is an important release for OS history because it is when the Android development team decided to stop naming genres using duplicate names. The good news, however, is that, despite this, the tenth version of the OS did not deliver the popular Easter egg.
After you move the wonder of this type of system, it is enough to press your finger on the characters you will be able to move on the screen. This is a realistic game for those who want to spend their free time in a fun way. What to do? Samee Q.

Android 9.0 Pie
The latest version of Android for the dessert name comes with a very creative “Easter Egg”, which is nothing more than a canvas for a cartoon. Just tap the P icon, which represents Android Pie, a few times, then tap and hold for a few seconds until the Robot type appears. Enjoy!

Android 8.0 Oreo
Android Oreo brings, shall we say, an amazing Easter egg. This is the nature of Oreoctopus, which can be controlled by the screen of the device, by moving its body and head. Models with Active Edge technology, which allows you to execute system commands by pressing the edges of the device, circular circles are presented instead of this theme.

Android 7.0 Nougat
Again, Google thought about all the details. On Android 7.0 Nougat, the object of the game is to attract the cat to the food plate (Yes weird! But why?). The process is very simple.
You can choose what you want to give as food to attract cats. Options are: Items, Fish, Chicken and Treatment. You can resume using your smartphone normally and you will be notified as soon as the cat eats your plate.

Android 6.0 Marshmallow
Android Marshmallow was unveiled at Google I / O in 2015 shortly after the Easter egg was released, but without any new additions. By the way, the game is similar to Lollipop, except this time it is possible to play several small robots at the same time (as if they do not hit only one) and the goal is to try to squeeze a little. Android robot between two big marshmallows that lives without touching anything.

Android 5.0 Lollipop
Lollipop was one of the most innovative updates for Android and, as we expected, it also brought a nice Easter Egg. This is a game similar to the famous and very challenging Flappy Bird. The goal is to make sure the little green nature of Android doesn’t touch anything, including the big candy. And when this is achieved, of course, he will get points.

Android 4.4 Kit Kat
Android KitKat was no exception, but Easter eggs were not the most creative of them all, at least when it comes to branding. Google developers have simply put the Android name on the popular KitKat chocolate logo.
However, in the next stage of Easter eggs, we got a mosaic with pictures from all the previous versions of Android, where you can play, by clicking on any icon, to lose.

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean
Sometimes you wonder where Android developers get so much creativity. For any Jelly Bean device, you can find the Easter Egg version. First, you will see a huge Jelly Bean, also known as a Jujube with eyes and mouth, and then hundreds of Jelly Beans flying to interact with you. And entertainment never stops.

Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
Do you remember Nyan Cat, a pixelated cat crossing the aisle looking for a rainbow? I think it was an inspiration for Android Ice Cream Sandwich Easter Eggs. And it was the first version with a small number of active Android devices appearing on the OS.
At this Easter egg, we see robots of Ice Cream Sandwich little pixeled that look very much like Android cave-dwellers, floating on space.

Android 3.0 Honeycomb
The Honeycomb brand is not forgotten. Fortunately, it is less scary than the Easter egg Gingerbread on Android. In this genre, we see a bee, in the form of Tron: Legacy, an American science fiction film, with the caption “REZZZZZZZZZ …” at the bottom right. For those who do not yet know, “Rezzing” means “creation” in the Tron world. Who said Android wasn’t a geek?

Android 2.3 Gingerbread
Android manufacturers do not always have a good taste when creating Easter Eggs and Gingerbread is evident. This kind of wonder is surprising to say the least. The scary picture is personal, and without knowing what was in the mind of the person in charge at the time, it is difficult to describe. You can make your own conclusions.
