Android’s Phone app grabs ‘Recent’ filters alongside a small Pixel change

Google is enhancing its Pixel Call Assist feature to help manage spam calls, introducing five new filters in the Phone app: All, Missed, Contacts, Non-Spam, and Spam. These updates are rolling out on the new Pixel 9 series, which also features a redesigned user interface with a dedicated Call Assist button. Additional features include Live Caption for accessibility, allowing users to read spoken dialogue and type responses during calls, and Call Screen, which uses AI to handle incoming calls and transcribe spoken content. Google previously launched an Audio Emoji update and has initiated a beta program for real-time scam detection, which alerts users to potential scams with a red pop-up notification.

Google app experiments with this potentially controversial UI change (APK teardown)

In the beta update version 15.32.37.28.arm64 of the Google app, the bottom navigation bar has been modified, notably with the removal of the prominent Search button. Users can still access Search by swiping to the top, but its visibility has been minimized. An APK teardown suggests that these changes may not be included in the final public release, indicating that Google is experimenting with different layouts based on user analytics and behavior.
