I joined the Android Beta program and updated my Pixel to 7.1.2 at least a month ago. However, I'm still stuck on the January 5 security patch. It was my understanding that phones in the Beta program should still receive monthly security updates. Has anyone else experienced this?
 
I'm still sitting on the Jan patch also.... I am a beta user...

Word has it that the Feb patch will rollout to us when the 7.1.2 is official....

I'm hoping that is not the case...
 
The developer previews and betas do NOT receive monthly updates. They receive a new version of the preview or beta approximately every 6 weeks.

This. If you're worried about the monthly updates for security I would suggest staying on official software.
 
This is actually a blessing in disguise for some of us. The Feb security patch introduced a bug that is causing random Bluetooth disconnects. Those of us on the 7.1.2 beta were spared from any trouble.

Unless a new build uses the Feb patch and not March
