These features appear to be rolling out now, and include tweaks to the Recorder app, an underwater upgrade for photography and Smart Compose coming to more apps.
Now, Google is launching a new site at recorder.google.com and is making it easier to share your audio files with their transcripts so people without Pixels can also read and listen. Recorder has the potential to be a great tool for accessibility, since you can use it to record snippets of audio and generate an animated transcript to share as an MP4. But the usefulness of that feature relies heavily on the accuracy of the transcription, and having a new portal and way to share these clips could make this tool more inclusive.
Google’s Smart Compose tool initially showed up to suggest ways to complete our messages in Gmail and Docs, and it’s now expanding to chat apps. Through GBoard, the feature will be available on Android Messages, Google Chat / Hangouts, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Verizon Messages, Line, Telegram and Slack. When you have Smart Compose enabled and start typing in one of these apps, you’ll see suggestions for how to complete your message based on what Google’s machine learning determined is appropriate or common.
The company is also announcing a way to use the Pixel camera underwater… by putting your phone in a Kraken case. If you plan on going diving, you can get the Kraken Sports Universal Smart Phone Housing to take your Pixel with you and use things like Night Sight and Portrait mode.
