This incredibly useful Pixel calling feature is finally reaching more users
 

• Google is expanding Pixel’s next-gen Call Screen feature to more markets.
• The feature is rolling out to Pixel users in Japan and the UK with the October 2024 Pixel Drop.
• The new Call Screen experience is available on Pixel 6 series and newer models.

Google offers a handy feature on its Pixel devices that lets the Google Assistant automatically answer calls for you and find out who’s calling and why. The Call Screen feature got an upgrade earlier this year, giving users access to a new Hello button to manually trigger Google Assistant to answer calls on their behalf. However, it was only available in a few markets. Google is now bringing it to more regions with the latest Pixel Drop.

The next-gen Call Screen feature is rolling out to Pixel users in Japan and the UK with the October 2024 Pixel Drop. It will be available on all Pixel devices eligible for the update, including the Pixel 6 series, Pixel 7 series, Pixel 8 series, and the latest Pixel 9 series. Once you receive the update, you will have to activate Call Screen on your device. You can do so by navigating to the Phone app settings and selecting the Spam and Call Screen or Call Screen option.
