9to5Google Opens Pixel Feature Debate as Android 17 Hints at 1 Missing Wallpaper Tool
3 articles · Updated · 9to5Google · Jun 29
Summary
9to5Google asked readers to name the features still missing from Google Pixel phones, framing the post as an open discussion rather than a poll.
Android 17 findings prompted the debate by suggesting Google is finally developing a proper wallpaper shuffle option, a feature already common on Samsung phones and iPhones.
The post argues Google has only recently closed some long-standing gaps, citing pop-up apps on Pixel foldables and tablets and PIN auto-complete as overdue additions.
Reader suggestions highlighted broader complaints beyond one feature, including better screenshot markup, lock-screen widgets, browser extensions, stronger AI integration, local backups and a more polished UI.
