Android 5.0 hinted at by Google in Twitter post

Nate Swanner

Google may have tipped their hat to Android 5.0. In a recent Twitter post announcing a fun new Google Now utility, some users noticed the time on the clock said 5:00. That’s uninteresting move, considering Google has hinted to new Android iterations via the same method in the past.


When Android 4.4, or KitKat, was released, several screenshots noting 4:40 were leaked. The same can be said of Ice Cream Sandwich (4:40). When Google feels a major release is afoot, the time usually changes. A 5:00 time doesn’t reflect any World Cup match start time, so we’re not sure what else it could mean.

With Google I/O right around the corner, the time is prime for a new Android numbering scheme. We’ll remember that 4.4 was a handshake lien sing deal between Google and Nestle for use of KitKat, though, and we don’t know when that’s supposed to end.

What do you think? Is Android 5.0 coming at I/O? What do you wan tot see from the latest Android iteration? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below!
