New Pixel update makes screenshots smarter

Google is rolling out a fresh update for Pixel phones that makes the Screenshots app even better. This upgrade brings a handy feature called “Suggestions,” which helps you quickly use the info in your screenshots without extra effort.

With this update, the app can now spot useful details—like phone numbers, email addresses, or event dates—right from your screenshots. Once it finds them, it gives you simple options to act fast. For example, if you screenshot a phone number, you can tap to call it. If it’s an email, you can start writing a message. Or if it’s a date, you can add it to your calendar with one click. This saves time and keeps things easy.

The Suggestions feature uses smart tech to figure out what’s in your screenshots and offer the right choices. It’s all about making your phone work smoothly for you. Plus, Google says this update keeps your info safe while it scans your screenshots locally on your device.

This isn’t the first time Pixel’s Screenshots app has gotten smarter. Earlier updates already let it pull out text you could copy or search. Now, with Suggestions, it’s taking things up a notch by helping you do more, faster. The update is hitting Pixel phones starting this week, so keep an eye out for it. It’s a small change that could make a big difference in how you use your screenshots every day!
