Pixel 9’s New AI Features Could Expand to Older Models Soon
Sep. 12, 2024Google’s Pixel 9 series has made lots of noise since its launch thanks to all the advanced AI shenanigans the search engine giant added to the device, especially in the camera department. Besides the improved camera hardware this year, Google also added a few newAI featureslikeAdd Me, Auto Frame, andReimagine. While Add Me will remain Pixel 9-exclusive, it looks like Google may bring the other two features to older Pixels.
The tipster spotted strings pertaining to the features in the latest version of the Photos app, i.e.,version 6.99for Pixels 6, 7, and 8 series, deducing that Google may bring the new features to older Pixels. They also found that the feature works oncustom ROMslike Evolution X and LineageOS by spoofing the device ID to Pixel 9, even on devices failingPlay Integrity.
This increases the probability of Auto Frame and Reimagine features arriving on non-Pixels in the future. What are your thoughts on Google bringing new features to older Pixels? Let us know in the comments.
