Google just announced several feature updates for Android device users, including Family Bell, three new widgets, new memories in Google Photos, improvements to Android Auto, and the ability to use the phone as a car key. First, no matter where you are, Family Bell can help you and your family follow your daily schedule. Even better, this feature can also be used across mobile phones, smart speakers/displays and other devices.
After the point is reached, family account members can receive notifications at important moments of the day, and everyone can set their favorite personalized ringtones. Editing, management, and customization are also quite simple.
In terms of widgets, first of all, Google Play Book allows users to access the complete library of books at any time during the holidays, as well as track the progress of audiobooks. Secondly, the YouTube Music widget makes it easy for users to enjoy favorite festival tracks, and place the playback controls and recent playlists on the home screen.
In addition, Google Photos will welcome the People & Pets widget next week to easily decorate the main screen area with family photos. This week, we also saw the new memories experience launched in Google Photos. This update selected photos and videos of important periods such as specific festivals or graduation ceremonies, and users can easily rename, customize, and customize via controls. Modify and remove them from the album.
In terms of Android Auto, the current mobile phone can be paired with a compatible car to automatically start after connecting, which greatly improves the driving experience every time. With the upcoming smart reply option, you can use the smart assistant on Android Auto to easily reply to text messages-just tap to reply or create a custom message.

In addition, just tap the newly introduced Always-On play button on the main screen to listen to your favorite music. Soon, you can easily listen to it by clicking the new search icon and then saying the name of your favorite artist or song.
If you want to use your mobile phone as a car key, it is not difficult now. From now on, users can easily unlock compatible BMW models in some market areas through the digital keys on compatible devices such as Google Pixel 6/6 Pro and Samsung Galaxy S21.
In addition, this update improves the privacy experience of Android 12. Unless the user explicitly instructs it, the device will automatically reset the permissions of apps that have not been used for a long time after being idle for a period of time. If necessary, you can still open the App (or settings menu) at any time to re-authorize.
Finally, this update brings richer Emoji Kitchen emoticons to Android 12, so that users can share the joy of the holiday. This feature is now available in Gboard Beta and will be pushed to all users of Gboard input methods in the next few weeks.
