We've just released Android Studio 1.1 Preview 1 to the canary and dev channels. The focus for version 1.1 is bug fixes; we are working in parallel on version 1.2 where we are migrating to the IntelliJ 14 codebase, among other feature work. However, in addition to the bug fixes there are some notable improvements:

This does not include the work and fixes to the build system for Gradle plugin 1.1, still in progress. Note that Android Studio 1.1 works fine with version 1.0 of the Android Gradle plugin. Installation You can manually check for updates via Help > Check for Update... (on OSX, look in the Android Studio menu). This will download and install a small patch rather than download a full IDE image. If you are using an older version, you'll need to download a full install from the downloads page. NOTE: 1.1preview1 is currently only available in the canary and dev channels, and Android Studio will by default look in the Beta or Stable channels, so if you want to update, open the preference dialog, go to the Updates category and change the channel setting. Problems? If you run into problems, be sure to check the Known Issues page which we'll update as necessary |
