The Pixel 11 Pro’s HiLight LED is bafflingly limited out of the box, but a new app removes its shackles
HiLight Studio is a new app that makes HiLight what it should have been out of the box, but this isn't the simplest of things to install.
The Pixel 11 Pro's HiLight LED feature, which can light up in various colors to alert you to calls and apps, is underwhelming out of the box. However, an app called HiLight Studio, developed by X user @Dhananjay_Tech, allows users to customize the LED's color and pattern for any app or notification. Despite its limitations out of the box, HiLight Studio is free of charges and ads, and it is open-source.
Setting up HiLight Studio requires using GitHub and the Shizuku app, which can be a hassle and requires manual restarting after each phone reboot. Some users have expressed mixed opinions, with some appreciating the enhanced functionality and others finding it too complex. Nonetheless, HiLight Studio offers a way to make the HiLight LED feature more useful and customizable on the Pixel 11 Pro.
