Pixel Recorder update brings new Pixel 11 app icon
Following the Journal app last week, Google is rolling out an update to Pixel Recorder that brings the new app icon to older devices.
Google has released an update to Pixel Recorder that brings a new app icon to older devices, following the Pixel 11 series' introduction of fresh icons for first-party Pixel apps. The updated Pixel Recorder features a white background with a less detailed red waveform, replacing the white waveform against a red background used since launch on the Pixel 4 in 2019.
Other Pixel apps, including Calculator, Camera, Clock, and Weather, have also received icon updates. However, there are no significant functional or visual updates with this release. Google has made minor tweaks to the three-dot overflow menu in recordings, making "Edit title" more prominent and moving "Delete" to a later action.
Version 4.2.20260709.960184543 of Pixel Recorder is now available via Google Play, though it's not yet widely distributed. For further updates, refer to 9to5Google on YouTube.
