- Fixes for the issues will go out with the January 2022 patch.
On December 6, 2021, Google made a big announcement about a new Pixel feature drop. The drop included numerous features for supported Pixel devices, with a lot of those features geared towards the Google Pixel 6 series. This was that series’ first quarterly drop since landing in October.
However, throughout this month, a lot of people have complained that they never received the update on their Pixel 6 phones. Worse still, those who did see the update complained of numerous bugs and problems. Most egregiously, some of the bugs are related to dropped calls. Now, finally, Google has admitted the Pixel 6 December 2021 update was paused at some point between December 6 and today, December 30.
