Motorola’s Moto G (2013) has begun receiving Android 5.0 Lollipop. This comes only a couple days after the Moto E (2014) received the bump to Android 5.1.

Android 5.0 brings a suite of new features with it, such as better multi-tasking, sharpened battery statistics, improved notifications, and much more. If you haven’t been prompted to install the update yet, head over to your app tray, tap the Settings icon, select ‘About Phone’ > System Updates, and tap “Yes, I’m in.”

If your smartphone says your system is up to date, you may have not received the update yet–usually you can check what version of Android your on in ‘About Phone’. Firmware upgrades are pushed out in stages, often its sent out to the first 1% of device users to ensure the software update isn’t going to debilitate your smartphone. I would be thankful for that, considering broken smartphones tend to cause mass hysteria in all of us. If you haven’t gotten it yet, you’ll see the update within the next few days, sometimes up to a couple weeks.

Android 5.0 is an excellent improvement to the operating system. Unfortunately, there’s no word on when the Moto G (2013) will be getting the jump to Android 5.1. Don’t even get us started on when you’ll see an update to Android M.

Have you gotten Lollipop on your Moto G? Let us know in the comments.
