The search giant Google is doing a lot of work on both mobile applications and the Android operating system. While the company made radical changes with Android 12, it also made changes in first-party applications. Finally, the developers announced that “quick expressions” will come as an alternative to the “Hey Google” command, and now this feature has started to be offered to users after the testing phase.
Google started rolling out Android 12 officially to AOSP a few days ago. Immediately after the release of the update, the “Quick Expressions” feature was also released. According to the notifications from XDA developers, Pixel 3 XL, which uses the Android 12 system, was the first lucky model to get this feature.
