Google's latest mobile operating system, Lollipop only made it to 9% of the Android devices worldwide, which doesn't really bode well for the most important mobile platform available on the market.

It's been more than six months since Android 5.0 Lollipop was released by Google and this version of the OS is still below 10% market share.

There's a high chance that the situation won't improve by much in the next couple of months because Google is now gearing up for another important announcement.

As many of you probably expect, Google is launching a new version of Android every year. This means that you won't be surprised that the search giant is almost sure to announce a new version of the operating system later this month during Google I/O conference.

Dubbed Android M, the new OS should be officially unveiled on May 28, the day Google I/O is set to kick off. The information was confirmed by Google itself, which posted a session description that mentioned a certain “Android M.”

The session description has since been removed from Google I/O website, but we have captured a screenshot and attached it to the article.

Android M will be launched on the market with a different name

According to Google, “Android M is bringing the power of Android to all kinds of workplaces. This opens huge new markets for hundreds of millions of devices to workers at small business, deskless workers, logistics and warehousing jobs.”

Unfortunately, no other details on what new features Android M could bring have been posted on Google I/O's website, but we expect more info to emerge as we're getting close to May 28.

Obviously, Android M will be launched on the market under a different name, which will probably not be disclosed during Google I/O.

The good news is that developers will probably be given the chance to test Android M soon after the announcement, even if the final version won't be available at that date.
