You can also use these motion gestures to snooze. Any alarms just remember to actually get up for work at some point, as I mentioned before, the pixel for smartphones can detect when you're reaching for them and then automatically activate that lock screen to show you what is up, but it can also be used to automatically activate that face recognition, which means basically soon, as you pick up the handset your face is recognized, and you're straight into those desktop, nor need to hit the power button or anything.

It works really, really well you just swipe up towards the center of the screen to go back to your home screen, swipe up and hold in order to access all of your recent apps I mean you're in an app.

You can quickly go back to the quick swipe from the edge like so, but if you're, not fine, just dive into that gestures, menu called a system navigation, and then you can return to the three button navigation traditional system found in previous versions of Android, and I'm back in the main settings menu.

It can actually get rid of it as well, just by simply swiping it down like so-and-so far.

The live captioning only works for English, but other languages should be supported soon and if you can't get enough of voice into text transcription as well. Try jumping into the new recorder app here on the pixel for absolutely everything that you choose to record, be a lecture or your best friend's drunken confessions won't just be recorded to an audio file.
