"Do Quick Phrases Not Disappear on Your Pixel? You're Not Alone."
According to feedback from numerous users online, the Quick Phrases suggestions in Pixels are becoming annoying and feel overly persistent.
Google Assistant is one of the most powerful tools within its platform. By saying "Hey Google," users can perform a wide variety of voice commands. To streamline responses, the Pixel 6 introduced "Quick Phrases," a feature that allows users to answer calls and alarms with brief commands. However, users have reported an issue related to this feature: the "Quick Phrases" bubble, which usually appears to allow responses like "Stop" or "Snooze," stays on screen longer than necessary.
This inconvenience has been noticed in both the stable version of Android 15 and the QPR1 beta, and it has even affected other Google apps. Under normal circumstances, this prompt should disappear after entering a command, but now it lingers on some devices' screens. This recurring issue suggests that the origin lies within the Google app, meaning that users do not have direct control over the solution, as a server-side adjustment by Google will be necessary.
There are some temporary solutions that users can try. One of them is to restart the device, which has worked for some, although the problem may reemerge. Another alternative is to disable "Quick Phrases," although this might be frustrating as it removes a useful feature. While these options can be attempted, none guarantee a definitive solution. The best strategy at this time seems to be to wait for Google to implement a fix, and since complaints have arisen over several days, it’s possible a solution will be available soon.
On another note, there have also been reports about a way to transform an existing smartwatch to look like the new Google Pixel Watch 3, even before its official launch. With an APK file, users can make their Wear OS device resemble the new model, which will feature a larger display and upgraded components.
Additionally, it has been discovered that the Pixel Watch 3 will require an Android phone with version 10.0 or higher to function, unlike the previous model, which only needed Android 9.0. Lastly, the Ultrahuman Ring Air stands out as a smart ring that includes the capability to detect atrial fibrillation, presenting itself as an empowering technology in the health space, although its use requires a subscription to a service.
