Your Pixel just got a ton of new features — here's what dropped and how they work
Google's November Pixel Drop is releasing now with a ton of new features for your Pixel devices.
Google unveiled its November Pixel Drop, introducing a range of new features for Pixel phones and watches. Among the highlights are expanded Gemini Intelligence, a new Create My Widget feature, and step-by-step workouts on Pixel Watch 3 and newer devices. The company also announced its new Google Fi Super Network. These new features are primarily available on Pixel 10 and Pixel 11 series phones; however, some smaller tools are accessible on Pixel 6 and later models.
Gemini Intelligence, Google's AI-powered assistant, now supports Pixel 10 phones, including the Rambler feature, which automatically removes filler words and formats spoken words into clean, coherent text. Additionally, automations for specific apps like grocery ordering, ridesharing, and booking reservations have been added. Pixel 11 phones can make calls using Gemini Call Screen, while Pixel 10 and 11 phones can make calls for you, such as checking inventory, putting items on hold, or making reservations.
Pixel 11 phones will also benefit from Pixel Solver, which uses generative AI to create custom templates and multi-step problem-solving for everyday math.
On Pixel 9 and above devices, Notification Summaries will recap long conversations, providing a glanceable context. For Pixel 6a and above phones, a new Custom Icons style using Nano Banana generation is available. Pixel Watch 3 and newer models will enjoy Step-by-Step Workouts, offering guided instructions for each exercise in a routine, tracking reps, weights, and metrics from the watch or phone.
Create My Widgets, Gemini Call Screen, and Notification Summaries, all mentioned above, are expected to arrive soon but have not received specific release dates yet.
Phone-to-Watch unlocking is also on the way for Pixel Watch 3 and newer models, allowing users to unlock their watch with a nearby paired phone. Lastly, Pixel 10 devices will receive Extreme Charging Mode, which charges phones quickly to full capacity. While the Pixel Watch's feature set is more limited, Pixel Watch 3 and newer models will receive Step-by-Step Workouts.
