Eight New Features Coming in the June 2025 Pixel Drop ...Middle East

This time around there are several new features to talk about. These should show up automatically on all currently supported Pixel phones and tablets in the coming days—so right back to the Pixel 6—but you can also check manually via System > Software updates in Settings on your device.

1. Pixel VIPs

Your Pixel VIPs are the most important contacts on your device, and now they get their own special widget as a spin-off from the Contacts app. This widget lets you see recent messages and calls from these people across messaging apps, including WhatsApp, as well as more details about them (including their birthdays and notable anniversaries).

2. Custom stickers in Gboard

Stickers made with generative AI are coming to the default Pixel keyboard, Gboard, with the latest Pixel Drop. With the help of Pixel Studio, you can create stickers of anything you like: An excited jelly avocado, a sad starfish wearing sunglasses, and sparkly blue sneakers are the examples Google gives. And yes, it does sound a lot like Genmoji on the iPhone.

3. Expressive Captions

If you use Live Captions on your Android device, you'll know it can be a useful way of getting live subtitles on screen for video and audio content, even if they weren't included in the original file or stream. Expressive Captions adds more feeling to this feature, so you'll see labels like "whispering" or "yawning" alongside the actual words themselves.

The new Pixel Drop includes several smaller new features worth mentioning, including improved support for hearing aids with LE audio features: You can now access presets and volume controls from inside a dedicated panel on your phone, as long as it's a Pixel 9 or newer handset running Android 16 (rolling out at the same time as this update).

5. Battery health indicator

If you own a Google Pixel 8a or newer, this latest Pixel Drop brings with it a new battery health indicator screen, which we were first made aware of in April. It shows details of the battery's remaining capacity, based on charging and usage patterns, and the feature should help you get more use out of your battery (and show you when it needs replacing).

6. Improve your photography skills

There's a neat little feature arriving in the default Camera app for Pixel phones and tablets: If you tap the new question mark icon that appears in the corner of the Camera screen, you get a visual guide to what each camera mode does, plus some instructions on how to use it. The idea is to "help you get the most out of your Pixel Camera," Google says.

8. Expanded feature availability

Finally, a couple of notes on availability: The Pixel satellite SOS feature that lets you get help when you're beyond wifi and cellular range is expanding to Australia, while the Pixel-exclusive Recorder app is adding French and German to the list of languages it can work with when it comes to transcribing and summarizing audio conversations.
