Android Canary 2610 arrives with new Pixel customization options and a missing HiLight feature

Google has released a new Android Canary build, version 2610, which brings several changes to Pixel phones. The update includes a revamped Wallpaper & style experience, offering new customization options.

The Pixel 11 Pro's HiLight feature appears to be getting support for WhatsApp message notifications, according to Android Authority. However, 9to5Google reports that the Pixel 11 series had to wait for a beta update, 17 QPR3 Beta 6.1, to get HiLight support for message notifications.

The October update for the Pixel 11 series includes fixes, but it is unlikely that there will be a second October release. Google's focus is expected to shift to the November update and the upcoming QPR2 release.
