Now that the Pixel 10 series has been out for a week, Google has begun rolling many of the software features it debuted with those phones to its older devices as part of the September Pixel drop. Starting today, if you own any Pixel device Google has released since 2021, including the Pixel 6 and Pixel Tablet, you can start to customize your device with the company’s new Material 3 Expressive user interface.
Among other tweaks, Google made it possible to add „Live Effects“, including a few that cover the weather, to your phone’s lock screen wallpaper. Material 3 Expressive also gives you more control over how the contact cards your phone displays when your friends and family call you look. Even if you’re not one to endlessly tweak Android’s appearance, as part of the redesign Google has once again reworked the Quick Settings pane in hopes of making it easier to use.
As Google mentioned during last month’s Pixel 10 event, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 will receive a handful of new software features, beginning later this month.
