    Battery Life Post September 2018 Update

    Battery life on my Pixel 2XL prior to Pie was magnificent. I am a light to moderate user and would routinely plug in at night (about 15 hours after unplugging in the morning) with 70% battery left. My usage is pretty consistent and typically includes emailing, some reading, about 30 to 45...

    Music playback over Bluetooth but no sound

    I have been having the same problem with my BT earphones. Sometimes when I pair, sound comes through earphones. Sometimes it continues to come out the phone's speakers. As Rukbat pointed out, I would then go to the settings page and click on the earphone output. However, that doesn't always...

    Google asking to save username

    I use Outlook for my work email. With the update that automatically loaded yesterday, every time I send an email I get a message at the bottom of the screen from Google asking if it can save my username.

    Blocking Text Messages

    For some reason, I cannot do that on my phone, even through the phone app. I wonder if that is a Verizon issue. Oh well.

    Blocking Text Messages

    I have received a few text messages from a local candidate soliciting my vote in the upcoming election. I want to block the number sending the message but can't find the way to do so. I have tried using Verizon's VZW messages app, as well as Google's message app, but when I highlight the message...

    Wifi Calling - 2 Questions

    My P2XL is on Verizon. I have WiFi calling enabled in the phone's settings. For some reason, the setting occasionally reverts back to disabled. Has anybody else experienced that and if so, is there a fix? Since there is no icon in the window shade, the only way I know that the setting has...

    Probably a dumb question (Google weather frog)

    To clarify, my last post was in regards to my Pixel C. I posted here as the Pixel C forum is effectively dead and thought I had a better chance of getting an answer in this forum. Thanks.

    Probably a dumb question (Google weather frog)

    With the recent update I lost the ability to access the weather frog at all. What setting do I change so that I can access the weather frog again? Thanks.

    Swiping - Post 8.1 Update

    I haven't received the February patch yet. For anybody that has, does the patch fix the swiping issue? I know that it is not listed in update description, but I am hopeful that it was fixed nonetheless as it makes using the phone very difficult. Thanks.

    Using Android Auto on the Pixel 2XL

    I have had my 2XL since launch and love it. My car is not Android Auto compatible. I have been using the Driving version of Google Maps on my phone when in my car as I use my phone for navigation. I love the 3D perspective that comes up when using Driving, even when you aren't navigating. I...

    Swiping - Post 8.1 Update

    It is getting harder and harder to answer phone calls. Is there another way to answer a phone call besides swiping up on the screen?
