Google celebrated ten years of Android Enterprise, born with Android 5 Lollipop, and sketched its roadmap for the next decade.
Back in 2014, Google introduced Work Profile, Zero-touch enrollment, and the Android Management API. Those tools handed IT departments direct control over apps, updates, and lost phones.
The company then launched Android Enterprise Recommended, a stamp that now appears on hardware, mobility suites, and reseller catalogs worldwide. Big names such as McLaren Racing, IIFL Finance, Amedisys, and Brink’s Brazil already rely on that label.

Android 16 adds a cleaner interface, fresh productivity shortcuts, simpler deployment flows, and tighter network protections. Last month Google shipped Device Trust, which can shut down stolen or unmanaged phones seconds after suspicious movement. Google has wired its flagship AI, Gemini, straight into Android so crews can draft messages or spot information with on-device prompts.
A single Google account will soon glue Android, Workspace, ChromeOS, and Chrome Enterprise together, trimming sign-in steps and policy quirks. Google then teased Gemini Live with camera and screen sharing plus Agentspace, a service that autofills tasks across apps. The Android team expects those tools to stretch onto upcoming XR headsets and glasses.
Google claims the platform meets doctors, drivers, clerks, and desk staff at their actual work sites, not a single screen.
After a decade of incremental wins, Google wants Android Enterprise to feel less like a bolt-on and more like the firm’s primary workplace OS. Its next release will drop later this year alongside new partner hardware.
