Google is working on an 'Enhanced HDR brightness' setting that lets you control how much HDR content brightens your Pixel's screen
This new setting will be found under Settings > Display & touch > Enhanced HDR brightness and includes a toggle to disable HDR support entirely as well as a slider to adjust the HDR effect's intensity. The page includes a standard image and a HDR image to compare the before/after.
This setting isn't available in Android 16 QPR1 Beta 1 but will likely be available later.

Google is working on an 'Ambient AOD' feature that shows the lock screen wallpaper on the always-on display
Many Android smartphones can show the lock screen wallpaper on the AOD, but Pixel phones currently cannot. Google experimented with this feature way back with the Pixel 3 but dropped it in future devices.
Now, Google looks to be testing an 'Ambient AOD' feature in Android 16 QPR1 that blurs the lock screen wallpaper and shows it on the AOD. This feature will be optional and controlled by a new "show lock screen wallpaper" setting. However, it may not be available on current Pixels due to a screen flickering problem, so it could be a Pixel 10 exclusive.
You can see the feature in action at the video linked below or read the source article for more information.

🎨 Google is working on a Pixel themes feature
The new Wallpaper & Style app in Android 16 QPR1 Beta 1 has a hidden "Themes" button with the description "Discover Pixel themes."
It's uncertain what and how many themes will be available, as well as whether Google will only provide preset themes or let you create and share your own, but this is exciting nonetheless.
More details can be found in the source link.

📱Google is still working on splitting Android's notifications & Quick Settings panels, but it'll be optional
Last week's release of Android 16 QPR1 Beta 1 brought a new Quick Settings panel design, but it didn't bring the previously leaked split panel design. However, Google hasn't abandoned the split panel design, as Android 16 QPR1 Beta 1 has a hidden settings menu for choosing the panel layout.
The current layout is called "combined (classic)" and it allows you to "swipe down from the top of your screen to access the classic panel that combines notifications and Quick Settings." The new layout is called "separate" and it lets you "swipe down from the top right to open Quick Settings. Swipe down from the top left to open notifications."
More background info can be found in the source link.

Pixel devices will finally get native flashlight strength adjustment.
While Android has had an API for flashlight brightness control since Android13, Google only used it in the Camera and Magnifier apps. Until now, Pixel owners had to rely on third-party apps that utilizes this API to adjust Pixel's flashlight intensity.
But that could change soon, as Google is working on integrating a "Flashlight Strength" slider directly into the quick settings tile. When active, the tile will even show the current brightness percentage.
The brightness adjustment menu is invoked by either tapping the right side of the tile (for the wide variant) or holding the tile (for the shortened tile variant), which immediately turns on the flashlight.
We'll probably see this change in Android 16 QPR1.

Pixel ringtones settings will get an updated design.
The new version of the Pixel Sounds v3.2 app will not only include the ability to customize vibrations for ringtones and notifications, but also an updated design tailored to the new settings appearance, which will likely arrive in Android 16 QPR1 (or later).
When Google is going to roll out the new version of apps with the ability to customize vibration is still unknown.

Pixel Watches have received Wear OS 5.1 update based on Android 15.
After a long break, Google has released a new update for Pixel Watch of all generations. The new version of the system brings the following changes:
• Support for Credential Managers (including passkeys and federated identity)
• Playback through the watch speaker: Users can select this speaker as their preferred option for media output if the app is integrated with the Wear Output Switcher.
• New “Modes” settings item to configure the existing “Do not disturb”, “Bed-Time” and “in theater” modes.
• You can now change the Display (UI) size. Previously, you could only change the font size.
• New color accent in settings. Instead of lettuce, a pale purple color is now used.
The following new features were also added along with the March Pixel Feature Drop:
• Loss of Pulse Detection detection for Pixel Watch 3 owners in the US.
• Menstrual cycle tracking in the Fitbit app for Pixel Watch 3.
• Auto Bed-Time Mode is now available for Pixel Watch 2.
• Updated step counting algorithm with improved accuracy - all models.
• New media controls for fast-forwarding and rewinding, adjusting playback speed, or managing playback queue.
❗️Important moment: Google is moving to quarterly (3 months) updates for the Pixel Watch, rather than monthly as it was until November 2024. So now the next update should be expected in June 2025.
Build Number: BP1A.250305.019.W3 (W2 for first gen)
Security Patch: March 2025
To speed up getting the update, put the watch on charge, open the Settings/System/System Update page, and tap the watch icon at the top several times in a row.

📱 You will be able to share your location in the Find My Device app.
The Friends and family finding in Find My Device will allow you to share your location with friends and family in real time. A similar feature is already available in Google Maps, but it may be faster and more accurate with the Find My Device Network.
Location data is safely stored and you decide who sees your location and for how long — with regular reminders about the people you’re sharing with.Presumably, you have to wait for an update to the Find My Device app for the feature to appear. UPD: You need to update the app to version 3.1.277 * Available on Android 9+ 😎 Google News | En

Pixel Recorder app will automatically generate transcripts for your recordings in the cloud.
With the new update to version 4.2.20241220, the app has received an 'Auto transcribe' option for audio files copied to the cloud with missing transcript. This feature builds on the previously added “Transcribe again” feature, which transcribes text using cloud-based algorithms rather than local device models.
The feature is part of the March Pixel Feature Drop and is available for Pixel 6 and newer.

Pixel Buds Pro 2 have received a firmware update.
The new firmware update version 3.144 adds “audio quality improvements” as well as the ability to customize the sounds produced by the charging case. Once the headphones are updated, a new “Case Sounds” page will appear under About Device / More Settings.
Here you will be able to enable or disable the sound when the headphones are properly placed in the charging case and other alerts such as start charging, low battery, successful pairing and errors.
You can manually check for headphone updates under About Device / More Settings / Firmware Update, or wait for them to update automatically while you're using them (you'll need to put the headphones back in the case for ~10 minutes to complete the update).

☁️ Pixel Weather will improve searching and saving new locations.
In the current state you have a '+' FAB on the home page to search for locations, however opening the weather page for any city will automatically save it to your 'saved locations'.
In the new app update v.1.0.20250106, Google is working to change this behavior. The “+” icon will be replaced with 🔍 , and opening weather information for any city won't automatically save it to the 'saved locations' list. Instead, a new “+” button will appear to the right of each search result, and when you open one of the cities, you'll be prompted to 'save this location' at the bottom of the screen.
This behavior is not available by default when upgrading to a new version and will probably be enabled in the coming months.

Repost from Mishaal's Android News Feed
🔔 Here's how Google's changing notifications in Android 16 with Live Updates
A lot of people were confused by Google's announcement of Live Updates in Android 16.
My latest article 👇 explores the feature in more detail
🔗 https://androidauthority.com/android-16-live-notifications-3518375/
Oh, and I found confirmation within the Android developer docs that Live Updates will appear as chips in the status bar, which lines up with my previous reporting on Rich Ongoing Notifications!
