If you’ve been eager to try Clear Calling on the Pixel 7 but unwilling to download beta software to use it, then today’s your day — Google is taking it and a couple of other features promised for the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro public in today’s feature drop. That includes new speaker labels for transcriptions in the Recorder app and access to Google One’s VPN feature at no cost — it’s otherwise reserved for subscribers on Google’s $9.99 / month 2TB plan.
Clear Calling attempts to reduce background noise when the person you’re talking to is in a noisy environment. It’s only being made available to the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro in this update — Phone Arena got word earlier this fall that the Pixel 6 series would be getting the feature, too; Google hasn’t confirmed to us whether the 6 series will get it in the future.
Either way, there are a few other items in this feature drop for older Pixel phones. This update enables spatial audio with head tracking with Pixel Buds Pro, but the feature itself won’t be available until January. Security and privacy settings are organized into a single hub now, and new wallpapers arrive to celebrate International Day of People with Disabilities.
Pixel Watch owners are getting some promised updates, too. You’ll get Fitbit Premium’s Sleep Profiles, including a monthly sleep animal (!), plus new weather and contacts Tiles. Sleep Profiles require 14 nights’ worth of data, so if you’ve been wearing your Pixel Watch to bed for the past two weeks, rest easy: you’ll be able to take advantage of that feature right away.
