 well as maintenance releases (MRs).
At the end of the program, you will begin to receive regular public updates. Users can opt-out
of the program at any time to return to the stable, public version of Android. However, they
should note that if they opt-out when their device is running a beta version of Android, all user
 data on the device will be wiped. Users are recommended to backup their data before
beginning the process.
