December update now available. And tons of feature drops especially for older devices.

I don't see adaptive charging on my Pixel 5

You need to update the device health services app as well as the OS update.

My phone isn't rooted, how do I do that?

Google play store. The update wasn't available for me in the play store, so I downloaded the APK from elsewhere.

Google play store

No update available there

No update available there

It seems to be a staggered rollout. It wasn't available for me either, so I just downloaded the APK from a well known APK site.

Once I did that the adaptive charging option was available.

I have to say I'm not very impressed with it though. I plugged my phone in at around 22:00 and set an alarm for 07:30. The adaptive charging toggle was on and the message on the lock screen said "Adaptive Charging (charged by 07:30). The phone was fully charged when I checked at 03:30, at that point I just disconnected the cable. So for me it was no help at all.

I don't know how to do that, so I'll wait, latest update in Google store was in September

Well that was easy enough, Googled , found it, installed it, now got it, cheers

Yeah I'm sure it will be available soon.

Although for me (and from reports on various forums) the adaptive charging didn't work too well.

Same i don't see it yet. I even uninstalled the latest update for device health and re-updated as well as restarting my device and still nothing. I know someone earlier me ruined they had to install and apk, but I prefer to wait. I think we might just have to wait before it pushes to our pixel 5's is my guess.

I installed the APK, simple Google and downloaded

Last night I put my alarm on for 10am and plugged in at 1:30AM, and it charged fast as normal, there was no special language about it being charged by a certain time. Weird. Adaptive charging was definitely set to on.

Maybe all this does is extend trickle charging

Yeah it seems broken at the moment.

I would say I'd try it again tonight, but it doesn't look like I'll be charging my phone tonight anyway. It's currently at 93% after about 14hrs off the charger (I've been home all day and literally only used it for a few things).

Well , unfortunately, I have yet to download the update. I have been checking all morning long I haven't seen anything yet.

No use checking until the 14th. It's been posted a few times, the Verizon Pixel 5 update is delayed like last month. Verizon must be tweaking some more 5G stuff specific to the Pixel 5 and 4a5G.

Mhmm gotcha thanks for telling me that. Cuz I would have driven myself nuts lol Verizon's got to be tweaking something for the update otherwise they wouldn't delay at that far out!

Here's the Google page with the note about the update being delayed until next week for the 3XL, 5 and 4a5G.
