Android 15 upgrades Pixel’s volume control function
Android 15 brings a significant upgrade to Pixel’s volume control function. Last week, Google released the Beta 2 update for Pixel smartphones and tablets. Due to a severe bug in the Private Space feature, the company yesterday pushed Beta 2.1 firmware.
The latest Android 15 update introduces easy volume controls for speaker groups and other Cast devices on Pixel phones. Google reportedly ditched this functionality back in 2021 with Android 12, which is making a comeback with the next Android version.
Post Android 15 Beta 2.1, when using multiple Cast devices in a speaker group, the Pixel’s volume controls work to adjust the volume of those connected devices. It’s unclear exactly what’s changed, but Google appears to have found a solution to bypass the legal issue that emerged in the past.
It’s worth noting that the second Beta of Android 15 introduced a redesigned volume panel on Pixel devices. Not only Google, but all Android phones that use stock OS will benefit from this redesigned panel. You may also get to see some parts of the redesign on your phone’s custom skin.
Google will release more Beta updates of the Android 15 operating system. The testing program is slated to run until July this year, with October may be the official release month. Last year, Pixel 8 debut also commenced the stable Android 14 rollout for Pixel devices.
