Moto G Android 4.4.2 Update is now rolling out to smartphones bought from motorola official website or through Amazon retailer store. The update for phones bought through carriers and other phones from other regions will receive the said update soon. The update is over-the-air and if you have a Moto G you will get the notification to update your phone to the latest Android version.

This update continues our effort to get our users the latest Android software as fast as humanly possible. We began by pushing KitKat out to Moto X users on Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile, just weeks after Google announced the new OS—and our most recent expansion over the past few weeks includes Moto X on US Cellular and Sprint and DROID ULTRA, DROID MAXX, and DROID MINI. We also started to roll out the software in Brazil for retail devices. More carriers and regions will follow very soon.
