Our latest Pixel Feature Drop is here, and Pixel Tablet and Pixel Fold have joined the party! Packed with helpful tools and updates for your devices, these features will begin rolling out to devices today and will continue over the next few weeks.

For Pixel phones

Discover the new Pixel Camera experience

It’s even easier to discover and use Pixel’s amazing camera features with a new camera interface, now available on devices with Android 14. Toggle between your favorite photo and video modes — like Night Sight and Slow Motion — to quickly find and access them, or even discover new modes you might have missed.

Make your Pixel truly yours

With Android 14 on Pixel, you can personalize your lock screen with new custom clock and wallpaper collections. You can also change the lock screen quick actions, notification display, and At a Glance information, making it easier than ever to find what you want, fast.1

Want a more neutral theme to complement your minimalist wallpaper? Try our new monochromatic themes to bring a mellow look to your Pixel phone, Pixel tablet, and favorite Google apps through the Material You dynamic color system.2

A more natural way to translate on Pixel Fold

Dual Screen interpreter mode on Pixel Fold makes it even easier to have face-to-face conversations in different languages. Pixel Fold simultaneously uses the inner and outer screens to translate live conversations, helping you have more natural conversations across languages without having to huddle around a single screen.3

RAW image viewing and editing is quick and easy

It's now easier than ever to edit RAW images taken on Pixel 6 and newer phones and Pixel Tablet. You can choose to automatically open RAW images in your favorite RAW editor directly from the Photos editor.4

Charge your devices with confidence

Pixel 6 and newer phones and Pixel Tablet will now notify you if your power adapter or USB cable is charging your device slowly or not at all.5

Battery Saver gets an upgrade

That’s not the only way your Pixel battery experience is getting an upgrade. The new design for Battery Saver makes it so much easier to stretch your battery life, whenever you need to. You can see exactly what is being restricted on your Pixel to extend battery life and select essential apps that can continue to run when you toggle on Extreme Battery Saver. You can also turn on Battery Saver or Extreme Battery Saver with automatic notifications at 10% and 20%.

Stream seamlessly

App streaming is now available on ChromeOS, so you can start using an app on your Pixel device and switch seamlessly to using it on your Chromebook instead. You can even send and respond to messages, check on your food delivery and more — right from your laptop.6

For Pixel Tablet

Better navigation for kids

Google Kids Space, a kids mode on the Pixel Tablet filled with quality content, has a new streamlined navigation bar making it simpler for kids to explore, switch apps and return to the home screen. 789
