- Google is changing the way Video Boost works on Pixel phones.
- Users are reporting on Reddit that Video Boost now remains on automatically, without the need for manual activation each time a recording is initiated.
- While this enhances usability, an always-on Video Boost could impact phone and backup storage.
Google’s Video Boost feature — exclusive to the Pixel 8 Pro, 9 Pro, and 9 Pro XL — uses AI to enhance video quality, particularly in low-light conditions and when additional stabilization is needed. Now, it appears the feature is getting a usability upgrade, as spotted by some Reddit users (and brought to our attention by our contributor Assemble Debug).
