Caller ID Feature

[latt45]

Fellow 6P Owners,

I have noticed a feature on Marshmallow that I haven't heard much talk about. It seems like now when I get a call from an Unknown Number it will automatically search google and associate the number with a name. i.e. I got a call from my gym and it automatically adjusted to say Life Time Fitness after the second ring. Anyone else notice this? I am running the 6P on Verizon.

Yep. That is the caller ID function for the Google Dialer App (the default phone app for our 6P) .

I believe that is a feature from Lollipop.

Actually it started with KitKat but only Nexus devices get access to it:
