After launching in early March, Google has launched the primary replace to its new Now Enjoying app for Pixel telephones.
As of Friday, model 2026.03.24.x (versus 2026.03.02.x) is extensively obtainable by way of Google Play. It’s been slowly rolling out over the previous few days.
We haven’t observed any apparent modifications after updating, so that is presumably a behind-the-scenes bug fixer. Google didn’t replace the “What’s new” launch notes within the Play Retailer itemizing.
Some have reported seeing the Now Enjoying icon adopted by “Faucet to see what’s enjoying” beneath the fingerprint icon on the lockscreen. It’s harking back to the earlier model’s means to set off a web-based search in case your Pixel acknowledged a tune was enjoying, however couldn’t establish it utilizing the on-device database.
The redesign gives a lockscreen shortcut (as seen beneath) and Fast Settings Tile as options. (That latter choice — within the 2×1 measurement — additionally replaces the silent notification figuring out what’s at present enjoying.)
Not all customers are seeing this and we haven’t been in a position to replicate this throughout a number of telephones. One chance is that “Faucet to see what’s enjoying” is a immediate to tell customers that tapping the icon when a tune title and artist seems lets them rapidly favourite a tune and open their music app, in addition to see cowl artwork.
Hopefully, extra substantial upgrades are coming sooner or later. First-party apps normally see massive updates alongside Pixel Drops each three months.
