the gboard translate/copy paste icon should be a fixed feature on the gboard and not having to toggle to the menu when it suggests a reply..
Do you know if they fixed the last update to Nightsight? I had to roll my Pixel 7 Pro back to the factory version of the camera app because Nightsight was flattening and over-sharpening images.
can they look into removing the auto ultra hdr display for photos?
So a big screw you to those who purchased a pixel 7 and 7 pro 12 months ago thanks Google
let's go, 45h update time
What happened with the redesigned "system update" screen (renamed to software update? I have not received that change, have you?. It was introduced with QPR1 beta 2
When is this available in the UK ??
Thanks for the information about the webcam thingy. I almost did not know about that update. Its very useful for my as my laptop comes with a not to good camera.
And for anyone that cares, webcam mode still works with phone screen turned off which might be helpful to reduce device heat issues a bit.
I have a 7 Pro. Don't have it yet, but really curious as to what will be included for us last generation folk.
Weird that Apple pushes updates to their devices at 10am right away but Android always rolls out throughout the weeks.
my p8p would prob get this update in a month.
I was hoping to see the video boost sample but anyways that's for another day I guess.
Still haven't received for my Pixel 7 pro
Can't wait to move over to Pixel when TSMC starts making the Tensor 5
Did they fix YouTube or Google photos?
Google 5a. Nothing changed
Is this 9 to 5 Google or Android Authority? 😉
Great choice. Damien has one of those easy listening voices. ðŸ‘Â
I think Google is doing some excellent things, however, I wish they wouldn't have such a slow rollout of these updates. I still have not gotten this update on my Pixel 8 Pro. If Apple can updated billions of iPhones in one day, I don't understand why Google has to do this slow rollout crap!
Most of the things are for pixel 8 pro 😢
ffs this stupid update still hasnt arrived on my 8 pro. and i am dealing with some serious bugs.. if this update wont fix them im gonna return the phone
I really hope that the AI enhanced video will become localized. I don't like having to wait for the video to be sent off to a server somewhere, edited, and then sent back to my device. Give it to me now lol.
God bless you for the next video!👄
In the meantime Google treats beta early adopters on QPR 2 like stepchildren. Unbelievable, they get us to endure through bugs but withhold all of the best pixel drop features from the betas and then we get the late.
Zero communication as to why, lack of respect for the beta testers. Only way out now is a full wipe or to sit and wait. Last QPR beta I do for Google until this ridiculous policy changes
