The very first line mentioned in its session's page states "Android M is bringing the power of Android to all kinds of workplaces." This sends out a hint that the next operating system from Google will be a business-oriented app, meant for 'Work Update’.

Google has been naming its operating systems - Jelly Bean, KitKat, Ice Cream Sandwich and Lollipop OS in the past.

However, the mysterious name of the new upcoming 'Android M' operating system has already created a buzz on Twitter:

Android 'M' is coming... Marshmallow? M&M? Muffin? Marzipan? Either way, can't wait to see it at I/O.
