OPPO device users can rejoice, as the highly-anticipated ColorOS 14 is finally here! This major update is built on Android 14, and it’s packed with new features and improvements. To get your hands on it early, you can sign up for the closed beta program. Just be aware that some third-party apps may not be compatible with ColorOS 14 yet, so you may want to wait until the official release before upgrading.
As the ColorOS 14 closed beta firmware undergoes rigorous testing, the brand has conscientiously reported instances of instability and performance concerns. Similarly, third-party applications may exhibit erratic behavior following the installation of Android 14. This could manifest as app crashes, unresponsiveness, black screens, or abnormal functionalities. Should any of these issues arise, users are encouraged to promptly update their applications to the latest available versions.
Meanwhile, OPPO is actively advocating for the customization of third-party applications within the Android 14 environment, with developers actively engaged in this pursuit. However, for the sake of clarity, the company has identified a selection of third-party apps that presently exhibit incompatibility with Android 14. Below, we present a list of popular applications that are yet to achieve compatibility with this new Android iteration.
