[@BryonLetterman]

I wish I didn't have to press the arrow button after typing in my code to unlock my phone. It should just understand when the code is correct and automatically unlock it

[@user-me1mv4vy9q]

It's prob intentional for extra security, although it's minor. If it is intentional, I hope they have an option for u guys to choose for it to be automatic or manual

[@nickthaskater]

Get a Samsung. That's a standard feature in One UI.

[@BryonLetterman]

@@nickthaskater my last phone was the Note 9. I absolutely loved it but I had it for so long that it was finally just starting to show signs of slowing down just a little bit. I love my Pixel 6, too. If I move away from the Pixel line, it'll definitely be to Samsung again. I just wish they still made the Note line

[@nickthaskater]

@@BryonLetterman the Ultra is just the Note by another name.

[@nickthaskater]

@@PushyPawn you don't sound particularly tech savvy, either, if you ended up downloading TikTok by accident. No such issue on my Fold 4. If anything, it's likely that was pushed by the carrier rather than Samsung. Considering all of these "new" features Google rolls out were on Samsung devices for the past 5+ years, it's a pretty big reach to call OneUI a bastardized version of Android. It's more like Google is plagiarizing Samsung's efforts.

[@nickthaskater]

The fact that they still don't have a transparent gesture bar is hilarious. It's mind boggling how far ahead One UI is.

[@aladamson9058]

🤣🤣

[@Bibbatron]

It's actually quite simple to have a transparent navigation bar. You just display it on top of whatever it's shown. Google though wanted to make sure the bar doesn't always obstruct certain important info and left it on the Devs. But obviously the Devs didn't bother optimising. So now they're just going to do the transparent navbar themselves.

[@nickthaskater]

@@Bibbatron I have absolutely no issue with the transparent nav bar on my Fold.

[@djdelarosa25]

I'm on One UI 5.1 and I don't have a transparent gesture bar.

[@absolutezer0791]

I Updated it and I kept running into that login problem. And I don't have another phone so I'm just stuck using 14 till it gets better

[@robin214389]

Another year of Minor android updates. Slight visual changes, few toggles added here and there. I would not even call them features. They are welcome changes but nothing a normal user can't live without.

[@skolvuk]

Another bug I've noticed is that my phone will randomly reboot. interestingly, this is the first time I've ever really had issues with beta software. Even when other people reported issues, I never had any. Also, when the fingerprint scanner doesn't work, sometimes face unlock does, though I'm still having to manually unlock my phone a lot more often.

[@Mikeyy410]

Mayne it's one of your settings for phone health, I have my phone set so it reboots every so often

[@Mikeyy410]

Maybe*

[@skolvuk]

@@Mikeyy410 No. It's only been doing it since I installed the beta. And at completely random, unpredictable intervals. If I had set it up myself 1). I'd know I set it up, and 2) it wouldn't be random.

[@kyb7795]

Transparent nav bar🍻we did it boys

[@allenb2920]

Overall, I'm very happy with the stability as a daily-driver. One note about the issue with fingerprint reader, just remove your existing prints and save new ones. Unlocking your phone will then be stress free.

[@1971chrisallen]

I did that and it errors out at the beginning of setting up a new print . My screen is clean, not sure what is going on.

[@kakshiki]

Pretty Stable, Not much Idle drain too.. However, had to revert back to stable, as payment apps weren't working.

What Pixel are you using for this Android 14 Beta?

[@jasmun5550]

same here!! there's no way to make it work as far as I can tell. I'm on a pixel 6 pro

[@Giulio_CG]

The "Wallpaper & style" app crashes on Android 14 Beta 1? There is a solution. Many users have encountered the problem of not being able to open the "Wallpaper & Style" page when updating, the problem lies in the themed icons switch. To fix the problem, you will have to reset the Pixel Launcher data. To do this: - Open Settings / Apps / Show all XX apps. - Find Pixel Launcher in the list. - On the "App info" page, click on "Storage & cache" - Click "Clear storage." - Don't enable themed icons any more. (Otherwise you'll have to do it all over again) ❗️This will reset your home screen. Google News | En

[@mochamarten]

Last I saw it's related around the themed icons toggle. You can clear data of the pixel launcher and that fixes the problem but turning themed icons back on breaks it again

[@user-me1mv4vy9q]

Cuz it's in beta

[@newfnshow031]

the feature we need is higher max volume over Bluetooth. I have an entire collection of buds from every company and they are all low. Especially pixel buds

At least on Samsung, in sounds you can set a custom volume limit higher than the normal one.

[@nabilkhalil7021]

[@manish_animeFreak]

Android 13 was a massive update in performance and features for samsung, OnePlus, nothing but i am confident that Android 14 will not be a massive update for all devices

[@unnainconnu9098]

Is your phone not getting Android 14? Back gesture preview is in my opinion the most important feature, and I'm not aware of a feature as useful as that for Android 13. Edit: there's the ART update (which Android 12 got too) and the "send notifications" app permission.

[@manish_animeFreak]

@@unnainconnu9098 no i will get Android 14

[@richf27]

Is anyone else battery saver not working in the toggle menu?

[@AleXoTroN]

You forgot the "new return animation" in the developer settings. If you do the gesture to go back but not release the screen, then you can see the previous screen without returning and you can abort the gesture then

[@cyberkingmedia]

This features can be added in small update, they developed new android version for small changes, why? XD

[@devilzmehadi3608]

Is there any chance to get "face unlock" in pixel 6 !

[@CCFC_86]

No the front facing camera on the p6 doesn't have the technology. On my p7 is only opens up the phone you still need to use your fingerprint when using apps like your bank

[@shahidmustaf4587]

The fingerprint unlock option has disappeared from my lock screen.

[@shahidmustaf4587]

Nevermind. I had to delete my fingerprint and reset the phone three times, then it finally reappeared on the lock screen.

[@valar_morghulis70]

Some apps aren't opening after the update. What should I do?

[@rakeshshutterbug9095]

When clicking on themed icons, wallpapers and style crashing continuously on Pixel 6.

[@Jacob5brand1]

Could the phone app or camera malfunction wouldn't want essential apps not working. But yea I should wait till beta 3.

[@TrevorKauf]

"Could" it? Yes, of course. This is beta software meaning they know it's not yet ready for the public. It's never recommended to install beta OS versions on your primary device. Then again, the phone or camera apps "could" malfunction on any OS version.

[@MrVasil91]

Is possible to lock the notification bar when the phone is locked? I mean, so I can't turn on/off wifi, bluetooth, etc. when the phone is locked? (Pixel 7 Pro)

[@oneminutewonder77]

It's hilarious that this is honestly what constitutes a new OS version at this point. What is really being added that couldn't be a simple patch to what we already have? It's for this reason why I don't understand why so many people are always clamoring for the new OS each year.

[@unnainconnu9098]

I was watching this for back gesture preview. I guess it won't be introduced before Google IO, as usual.

[@fabiosoares7660]

Edit: i know it's beta 1 but take android 12 and android 13 for example, most of the changes are just minor upgrades, same as 11 to 12. I want new AI features, some changes, i don't want a new android just for the sake of it.

This whole mess was on app Devs. Google left it on them so the navbar doesn't hide any essential info.
