  2. Why don't you use screen recording function and show that as review video rather than show it via holding in your hand…???

  6. Can someone who uses beta 14 tell me if there is an immersive mode or if you force applications to fit on the whole screen, this is very important to me and it bothers me the most on the Pixel 7 phone

  7. I'm having trouble with the volume when I get a call the volume rocker as well as the onscreen slider won't control the volume and I have to either manually reset my headsets. My headsets are the pixel buds pro. Either way I've had my ears blasted more than a few times due to this bug.

  12. I wish there is a option to turn off poping notification when in fullscreen video without the need to manually turn on no disturb mode before I watch video.

  13. The issues I had with Android 14 Beta 1 on my Pixel 7 Pro was I couldn't access my voicemail and Google Messages Beta was acting really crazy. I see Beta 2.1 has been released so maybe they fixed the issues. Great video as usual!

  15. I like being able to choose or having the phone choose the color palette theme. I hope Android 14 doesn't take that feature away.

    What I like before (which we don't have currently) is when you change your wallpaper, you had the option to have the phone choose the color palette theme or choose the color palette theme yourself.

    Curious when Android 14 will come out to the public and for non-pixel phones.

  19. omg why no one talk about how much bad those circle shape icons are they been around years and i never see an opinion like this even tho everybody bothered by them at some point
