Android Cupcake is the third version of the Android operating system developed by Google, being the successor to Android 1.1. It was released on April 27, 2009, and succeeded by Android Donut on September 15, 2009. Android Cupcake introduces a new virtual keyboard, marking a departure from the physical keyboard on the HTC Dream, and adds support for stereo Bluetooth. Cupcake improved features in its built-in apps: videos can be uploaded directly to YouTube, photos to Picasa, the Gmail app supports batch actions, and the web browser was updated to include a new JavaScript engine and copy-and-paste. Android Cupcake was the first major release of Android to use a confectionery-themed naming scheme, a scheme that continued until the release of Android 10 in 2019. By July 2010, Android Cupcake accounted for less than a quarter of active Android devices. User adoption of Android Cupcake began to decrease in the following months, with 4.7% of devices using Android Cupcake by January 2011. On June 30, 2017, Google ceased support for Android Market on Cupcake.
