Which features work in India
Not every feature reaches India on day one. According to Business Standard:
- Gemini multi-step tasks are available in India, Japan and the UK on supported Pixels. You can ask Gemini to order groceries or book a ride across apps.
- Notification Summaries now support Hindi, along with German, French, Spanish, Italian and Traditional Chinese, and are expanding to more markets including India.
- Call Screen with Gemini is limited to the US for now.
- Pixel Tag pricing for India has not been announced.
Features that depend on apps, such as grocery or ride booking, will only work with services that support Gemini’s actions in India.
Pixel Tag: Google’s first item tracker
Google has launched the Pixel Tag, a Bluetooth tracker for keys, bags and luggage. It costs $29.99 for one or $99.99 for a four-pack in the US and went on sale on November 11. It uses the Find Hub network of Android phones to show its location and supports Ultra Wideband for close-range direction finding. Google claims more than a year of battery life.
For Pune travellers, a tracker in checked luggage is handy at busy airports. See our Pune Airport guide for other travel tips.
How to get the update
Open Settings > System > Software updates on your Pixel and tap Check for update. Google releases updates in stages, so it may take a few days to appear. Back up your phone and keep it charged above 50% before installing.
What is still not clear
