Google Pixel Clear Calling Gets Material 3 Expressive

Clear Calling
この記事のポイント
  • The “Clear Calling” feature on Google Pixel devices has recently received a quiet, minor update.
  • The latest update introduces “Material 3 Expressive,” the newest design system for Android, along with revamped illustration images.
  • This change was introduced via the latest update to the “Device Connectivity Service” app.

Originally added to the “Pixel 7” and “Pixel 7 Pro” as part of the December 2022 Feature Drop for Google Pixel devices, “Clear Calling” is a feature that reduces background noise during voice calls to ensure crystal-clear conversations.

Naturally, “Clear Calling” is also implemented in the new-generation Google Pixel “Pixel 11” series. It supports Wi-Fi calls on certain third-party apps for the “Pixel 8” series and later (excluding the “Pixel 8a”), and VoIP apps for the “Pixel 10” series and later (excluding the “Pixel 10a”).

Recently, a quiet and minor change was made to this “Clear Calling” feature on Google Pixel devices: the design of its settings page. It now incorporates “Material 3 Expressive,” the latest design system update for Android, and features revamped illustration images.

Please note that this is purely a redesign of the “Clear Calling” settings page to adopt the “Material 3 Expressive” style, and the functionality itself remains unchanged.

Incidentally, the “Material 3 Expressive” style on the “Clear Calling” settings page has been introduced via the latest update to the “Device Connectivity Service” app.
