New Android 16 Beta and Wear OS 5.1 updates bring changes
The Android 16 beta is here, and it’s letting more Pixel phones use a cool feature: unlocking with the fingerprint sensor even when the screen is off. This makes getting into your phone faster and easier, especially for people with newer Pixel models.
It’s a small but handy upgrade that saves time and effort. Meanwhile, the Wear OS 5.1 update for smartwatches is causing some trouble. Users are noticing that notifications are showing up late, and there are other annoying bugs too.
Instead of making things better, this update has left some people frustrated with their watches not working as smoothly as before. Both updates show how tech companies are trying to improve our gadgets, but the results aren’t always perfect.
The Android 16 beta brings a nice perk for Pixel owners, while Wear OS 5.1 needs some fixing to get back on track. For now, phone users might be happier than smartwatch fans as these changes roll out. Keep an eye out for more updates to smooth things over!
