The Google Pixel 9 series comes with a bunch of new apps, such as the new Weather App, Call Notes, Pixel Screenshots, Pixel Studio, and Gemini Live. These are Pixel exclusive apps, but you can try them on any Android phone running the latest Android version. We have already shared the Pixel Weather app, and now here is the Pixel Screenshots app from the Google Pixel 9.
Pixel Screenshots is a new home for all your screenshots. The app will use AI to process helpful details to create a searchable library to help you find anything in your screenshots. It is similar to the Windows Recall AI feature – the app uses AI to summarize your screenshots and answer your questions about the information in them.
