June 2025 Pixel Drop​

Hi Pixel Community,

Your Pixel devices become even more helpful with Pixel Drops. They’re automatic software updates that send new and upgraded features to your phone, tablet, earbuds, and watch(1), so your Pixel devices keep getting better over time. To get all the details about the June Pixel Drop, visit the Pixel Drop page of the Google Store.

When will I see the new features?
Supported Pixel devices will receive these software updates starting today. The rollout of these features will continue over the coming weeks in phases depending on carrier and device.

You will receive a notification once the system update is available for your device. Update to the latest Android version and update your apps, then look out for a notification from the Pixel Tips app to learn more about all of the ways your Pixel just got more helpful.

Here are some of the exciting, helpful features coming to Pixel phones & Pixel Tablet:

Pixel VIPs
Elevate your closest family and friends from favorites to VIPs with the new Pixel VIPs widget from the Contacts app. See your last call and message, including ones from WhatsApp, stay updated on upcoming birthdays and anniversaries, see real-time location when shared, and jot down quick memos so you'll remember important details. Your VIPs can also bypass Do Not Disturb so you don’t miss a moment.(2)

Redesigned Google Photos editor - Coming soon
Editing in Google Photos puts more power at your fingertips so you can fine-tune your pics in just a few steps. Enjoy AI-powered suggestions that enhance your photos in just a single tap, plus instant access to recommended tools based on what you select to edit and easier access to your favorite tools for complete control.(3)

Custom stickers in Gboard, powered by Pixel Studio
Now you can use Pixel Studio right in Gboard to generate almost any sticker you can think of.(4) A jelly avocado? Absolutely. Just type the prompt, choose the right emotion, then send it out—without switching between apps. You can also choose a photo from your camera roll, and its background is automatically removed, so you can share it as a sticker.

Expressive Captions
Expressive Captions will automatically capture the intensity, nuance and emotion of how someone is speaking in the videos you watch. Whether someone is whispering, yawning, or clearing their throat, videos will now provide more detailed captions, even with live or streaming content that doesn’t have pre-loaded captions.(5)

Hearing Aids features with LE Audio
Built with the latest Bluetooth technology, you can now take calls on the go with compatible hearing aids. Plus, you can easily access your hearing aid presets and change your ambient volume right in your phone settings.(6)

Live Search in the Magnifier App
The Magnifier app on Pixel now has Live Search to help you easily find things around you – just type what you're looking for, scan with your phone, and it highlights matches instantly, no taking a picture first needed.(7)

AI Summaries in the Recorder App expanding to new languages
The Recorder app can now give you a summary of your recorded conversations, interviews, lectures, and presentations in French and German.(8)

Satellite SOS expansion in Australia
If you’re somewhere without a cellular or Wi-Fi connection, Pixel can connect to emergency services via satellite to get help.(9)

Safety Check timer extension
You can now easily extend your Safety Check timer on your phone or watch, right when you need it. This means you can add more time to your Safety Check without having to start a brand new one, adapting to your changing plans or situations.

Battery Health indicator
Your Pixel now provides information about your battery's health, reporting its estimated remaining capacity based on your charging and usage patterns. This helps you understand when it's time to replace your battery, empowering you to decide the right time for replacement.(10)

Camera Education
Tap the ‘?’ icon in the Pixel Camera app to learn more about features through visual examples and clear guidance, enabling you to get the most out of Pixel Camera and take better photos and videos.

Clear voice mode in the Recorder app for Pixel 8 phones
Pixel’s audio machine learning automatically reduces the background noise of recordings. So whether it's an important conversation in a loud cafe or a podcast while construction is going on next door, it plays back clearer. Now available on Pixel 8 phones and newer.(11)

Advanced Protection
As Google’s strongest security for mobile devices, Advanced Protection activates a powerful array of security features, seamlessly working together to safeguard you against online attacks, harmful apps, and data risks.(12) Learn more about Advanced Protection.

AI Mode in Pixel search bar
Experience AI Mode, our most powerful AI search, now directly accessible from your homescreen's search bar. Ask whatever's on your mind to get an AI powered response, and explore further with follow-up questions and helpful web links.(13)

Meet Veo 3, your new AI video generator
Simply describe your idea and watch it come to life as a high-quality, short video, complete with natural audio. You can access this now on Gemini on your desktop and mobile app with a Google AI Ultra or Google AI Pro subscription. Plus, as a special perk for Pixel users, Pixel 9 Pro owners get a full year of Google AI Pro subscription to try out Veo 3, and all other Pixel & non-Pixel owners can enjoy a 1-month free trial.(14)

OTA Images

Warum findet mein Telefon kein Update?
Die OTA-Updates werden z.T. erst später freigeschaltet.

Warum dauert das Update so lange?
Das Pixel hat zwei Partitionen, das Betriebssystem ist quasi doppelt im Speicher.
Wenn ein Update kommt, wird es auf die nicht verwendete Partition aufgespielt.
Anschließend werden Apps/Einstellungen von der aktiven Partition mit der bislang nicht verwendeten abgeglichen.
Schließlich wird der Cache aller Apps zurückgesetzt (Optimierung).
Wenn das alles erledigt ist, wird man zum Neustart aufgefordert.
Dabei wird dann auf die bislang nicht verwendete Partition mit erfolgtem Update umgeschaltet.

Damit man das Telefon währenddessen weiter nutzen kann, passiert das alles im Hintergrund mit niedriger Priorität.
Deshalb dauert es, und deshalb ist es egal, ob das Update nur ein kB oder mehrere MB groß ist.
Denn nicht die Änderung dauert, sondern das danach.

Der Vorteil ist, läuft beim Update etwas schief, kann auf die Version vor dem Update umgeschaltet werden.

Tipp: Wenn ein Update kommt, Abends ans Netzteil, Update starten und am nächsten Morgen neu starten.

Warum ist der Google Play Sicherheitsstand nicht aktuell?
Das Google-Play-Systemupdate ist unabhängig vom monatlichen Pixel-Sicherheitsupdate.
Es ist also durchaus normal, wenn der Google Play Sicherheitsstand älter ist!

Mein OTA hängt noch in the air

 

[Gustav-Erich]

Es geht los

 

[kalli73]

@vergilbt jetzt nicht mehr 1,48 GB

 

[HeinzDo]

Lädt hier gerade runter...1,48 GB

 

[Mandulli]

Geht los

 

[DietCoke]

Bei mir auch: 1,47GB =)

 

[Farron]

Bei mir "nur" 1,47 GB

 

[mrhyde]

Tja, ich warte noch die ganzen Installationsbugs ab.

 

[Sonic-2k-]

Für ein Versionupgrade ziemlich wenig MB, wie ich finde.

@mrhyde

Angsthase . Hatte auch überlegt abzuwarten, aber ich riskiere es mal. Es gab genug Betas, weshalb ich mit keinem Problem rechne.

 

[vergilbt]

Ist das alles?

 

[kriscross]

Kommt wohl für die Beta Austeiger später.

 

[blackseven]

Pixel-Vip habe ich die Tage schon als App im Playstore installiert bekommen...

 

[b0thunt3r]

Kommt wohl für die Beta Austeiger später.

Wollte aus der QPR mit Vibe raus - mir wird A15 angeboten

 

[schinge]

@b0thunt3r
Das No-Wip-Update für Beta-Nutzer kommt, wie gesagt, immer erst ein paar Tage später raus.

 

[2WF]

@b0thunt3r das hat doch immer ein paar Tage gedauert, bis die no wipe kam

 

[b0thunt3r]

Leude, ich weiß. Aber da ich auf der QPR bin dauert es theoretisch noch einige Zeit bis ich ohne Wipe raus kann - ich will aber jetzt mit Vipe raus und auf die A16.

@mrhyde kurz hierzu wegen der 6.1.x Kernel Thematik:

Alles hat seine Vor- und Nachteile. Man hat sich nun bei Google dafür entschieden längeren Software Support und längere Akkulebenszeit mehr Fokus zu schenken als schnell die neusten Kernel und > 40 Watt Laden. Ich denke damit hat man an sich für das Android Ökosystem auch die richtige Weiche gestellt.

Vorher:

• Hersteller mussten für jede neue Android-Version auch die sogenannte „Vendor-Software“ (also Firmware und Hardware-Treiber des Chipsatzes) aktualisieren und zertifizieren lassen.
• Das bedeutete für die Hersteller viel Arbeit, hohe Kosten und komplexe Abstimmungen mit den Chipset-Herstellern.
• Deshalb gab es meist nur 2–3 große Updates pro Gerät.

Mit Longevity GRF:

• Hersteller dürfen die originale, zum Marktstart zertifizierte Vendor-Software für bis zu 7 Android-Updates weiterverwenden.
• Beispiel: Ein Gerät startet mit Android 15 und kann mit denselben Treibern bis Android 22 aktualisiert werden.
• Google friert die technischen Anforderungen für die Vendor-Software ein („Requirements Freeze“): Keine neuen Vorgaben für den Chipset-Support bei jedem Update.
• Allerdings: Alle 3 Jahre ein großes Kernel Update vorgeschrieben

Genauer beschrieben hier (englisch): Exclusive: Here’s how Google is making it easier for Android devices to get 7 years of updates

Google hat mit dem Android 15 QPR2-Update im März 2025 alle Tensor-basierten Pixel-Geräte (ab Pixel 6) auf den Linux-Kernel 6.1.99 aktualisiert. Diese Version ist ein Long-Term Support (LTS)-Kernel, der für einen längeren Zeitraum gepflegt wird und somit langfristige Stabilität und Sicherheit bietet. Ich denke daher nicht, dass man alsbald für neue Smartphones davon jetzt wieder ausbricht. Aber wer weiß. Kernel 6.1 wird offiziell bis Dezember 2027 von den Maintainer-Teams gepflegt.

Wird auch Zeit...

13 MB Google Play gab's auch noch hinterher
