Google revealed the dates and venue for it’s 2019 I/O. Google I/O is an annual developer conference held by Google each year since 2008 in California. It is a 2-3 days conference organized in the month of May or June. I/O is an annual festival for developers.
Google’s CEO Sundar Pichai confirmed the venue and dates of the event in a tweet posted on Saturday. The conference venue is the same as the last time- Shoreline Amphitheatre, Mountain View California, and the conference maybe started from 7 of May and last to 9 of May.

Initially, Google teased the information of I/O 2019 in a puzzle. The puzzle was a 12-line block of a tweet with a URL which leads to a video to tease the schedule of I/O 2019, and this puzzle was decoded by a twitter user named Till Kottmann within hours of posting the puzzle. The reference was hidden inside the puzzle that was posted on Twitter in the official page of Google’s Developers to get the date of I/O 2019.

In term of announcements, we have a few rumored announcements which will hopefully take place in the upcoming Google’s IO.
Android Q
Android Q is likely to be the most important announcement in all of them as this operating system is rumored to have Dark Mode, Desktop Mode, and App permission revamp. We have already covered a better blog regarding major features of Android Q here.
Pixel Watch
A recent $40M deal with watch brand Fossil gave us a hint about the pixel watch. While Google never shared any plans for launching smartwatches this year but we may have an announcement this IO. Market researchers have revealed that a Pixel Watch might be introduced at I/O 2019. Also, some Google employees were seen surrounding two new devices with codenames “ Salmon” and “Medaka”.
Google Fuschia
Earlier we already have talked about Fuschia OS. Google is planning to go beyond the world of smartphones with Fuschia. it is expected that the Google team will reveal some insights of the cross-platform operating system at Google I/O Event this year.
Google Coral
Google Coral is termed as a secretive device recently spotted on GeekBench. The device is having a 6GB RM and has the fastest mobile processor of Qualcomm, i.e, Snapdragon 855. It is having an average frequency of 1.78 GHz and is expected to run on the forthcoming Android 10.0 version, Android Q.
