- Google is working on sending out fewer notifications when your Pixel device is unlocked by your smartwatch.
- Watch Unlock notifications will soon appear based on the distance between your phone and paired watch in order to reduce interruptions.
Google introduced the Watch Unlock feature for Pixel Watches last year. This handy security feature allows users to unlock their Pixel devices simply by wearing a paired smartwatch. However, those who’ve used Watch Unlock will attest to the fact that they are tired of the “Unlocked by your watch” notification that appears every single time a Pixel phone is unlocked using the feature. Well, it seems Google will soon address the issue and get rid of those annoying notifications.
