Google has launched the ‘Pixel Troubleshooting’ app for Pixel devices to provide fast and easy solutions to problems like rapid battery drain or abnormal heating. This app is now available with the Google Pixel 8 series devices.
Some past Pixel models have had issues with abnormal heating or faster battery drain. Many people have also reported facing connectivity issues with their Pixel devices.
Google has already addressed a key reason behind the heating problem with the Pixel 8 series. However, concerns among people are likely to persist for a while, and Google seems to be taking that into account.
The new Pixel Troubleshooting app is designed to assist you with easy fixes and suggestions.
The assistance that ‘Pixel Troubleshooting’ provides
Pixel Troubleshooting currently provides solutions for battery and network-related issues, at least for now.
The Battery diagnostics option within the battery menu helps you identify issues related to faster-than-usual battery drain, an overly warm device, or problems with charging.
Depending on your issue, it offers suggestions to address the problems and even provides an easy way to connect with the Pixel support team. For instance, it can help you identify features that might be causing the faster battery drain.
Similarly, the mobile connection troubleshooting offers tips to enhance your connectivity if you’re experiencing issues.
As of now, Pixel Troubleshooting is only accessible within the settings of the latest Pixel 8 series devices. However, Android Authority has already managed to install the APK on the Google Pixel 7.
Moreover, the application has been available on Google Play since late September. Therefore, it’s highly likely that Pixel Troubleshooting will become available for older Pixel devices in the near future.
