I found a clever Google Photos trick that made my storage feel unlimited

Google has quietly removed the infrared thermometer feature from its Pixel 11 series, replacing it with a new HiLight notification light. Initially met with skepticism, the thermometer was a unique addition to the Pixel 8 Pro, and its removal has left one user feeling a sense of loss. Despite being dismissed as a pandemic-era gimmick, the thermometer proved surprisingly useful for many, including the author, who found themselves using it more than expected.

While the new notification light may not be as groundbreaking, the removal of the thermometer marks the end of an unusual and somewhat beloved feature in the Pixel lineup.
