Google officially rolled out stable Android 17 last week for supported Pixel devices, dating all the way back to the Pixel 6. Prior to the release, the update had been in beta for several months, during which we tested many of the new features that Android 17 brings. But the update rolling out in stable not only finalizes the features but also makes them available to people who wouldn’t want to sacrifice device stability just to test new features, which, to me, is a fair ask.
We recently asked our readers about their favorite Android features, and one emerged as the absolute favorite. It’s also one of the features my colleagues use most among Android 17’s offerings.
