Google is finally copying this Apple Watch feature for its Pixel Watch
Android Authority • • general
Key Points:
- Google is developing a "Notify when left behind" feature for the Pixel Watch that alerts users if their connected Android phone is left behind, similar to existing functions on Apple Watch and Galaxy Watch.
- The feature requires both the Pixel Watch and phone to have Bluetooth enabled and the watch to be worn and unlocked to function properly.
- In addition to notifications, the phone will automatically lock when left behind or when Airplane Mode is activated, but only one Pixel Watch can support this auto-locking feature at a time.
- Users will have the option to disable alerts in trusted locations, such as their home, to avoid unnecessary notifications.
- The feature is still in development and not yet available, with no confirmed release date; APK teardown insights may not guarantee
