Android 17 arrives on Pixel phones today

Android 17 今日正式登陆 Pixel 手机

Following its official debut last month, Google is now rolling out Android 17 to compatible Pixel phones, alongside additional exclusive features as part of the June Pixel Drop. Not every feature announced alongside the OS at the pre-I/O Android Show is available today, though.

继上个月正式发布后,谷歌现已开始向兼容的 Pixel 手机推送 Android 17 更新,并作为 6 月份 Pixel Drop 的一部分,同步推出了一系列独家功能。不过,并非所有在 I/O 前夕 Android 发布会上公布的功能都会在今天上线。

Android 17 itself is arriving on Pixel phones today, and Google says other manufacturers will be issuing the update throughout 2026. The biggest user interface update is the introduction of Bubbles, floating app windows that you can open with a long press — similar floating windows are already found in many Android skins, but are now an official part of 17. Google is making them more useful on bigger screens, with a dedicated “bubble bar” dock at the bottom of the screen for easier multitasking on foldables and tablets.

Android 17 今日正式登陆 Pixel 手机,谷歌表示其他厂商也将在 2026 年内陆续发布更新。此次用户界面最大的变化是引入了“气泡”(Bubbles)功能,即通过长按即可打开的悬浮应用窗口——虽然许多 Android 定制系统早已具备类似的悬浮窗功能,但现在它已成为 Android 17 的官方原生特性。谷歌还提升了其在大屏设备上的实用性,在屏幕底部设置了专属的“气泡栏”(bubble bar)停靠区,以便在折叠屏手机和平板电脑上更轻松地进行多任务处理。

The update also includes Screen Reactions, which make it easy to record selfie video while you screen-record, taking the hassle out of recording a reaction video for social media. Foldables are also getting new gaming controls that display a touchscreen gamepad on the bottom half of the display, while the game itself sits on top, and all Android phones will get native controller remapping. Various expanded parental controls and security features are also included in the update.

此次更新还包括“屏幕反应”(Screen Reactions)功能,用户在录屏时可以轻松录制自拍视频,从而简化了为社交媒体制作反应视频的过程。折叠屏设备也获得了全新的游戏控制功能,屏幕下半部分会显示触摸式游戏手柄,而游戏画面则位于上方;同时,所有 Android 手机都将获得原生的手柄按键映射功能。此外,更新中还包含多项扩展的家长控制和安全功能。

There are more new features rolling out exclusively to Pixel phones, though most are wider expansions of existing abilities. The new Gemini Omni model will become available in the Gemini app to create video from text prompts, while Lyria 3 lets you do the same for music. AirDrop support through Quick Share is expanding to the Pixel 8A and 9A, Voice Translate for phone calls is coming to the 10A, and Take a Message will now be available on every Pixel from the 6 onward (except in India, where it’s still limited to the 10 series only). Finally, conversational editing in Google Photos is expanding to the UK, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy, while Magic Cue suggestions will appear in new messaging apps — though Google didn’t specify which.

还有更多新功能专为 Pixel 手机推出,尽管其中大多数是对现有功能的进一步扩展。全新的 Gemini Omni 模型现已在 Gemini 应用中上线,支持通过文本提示创建视频,而 Lyria 3 则支持通过同样的方式创作音乐。通过“快速分享”(Quick Share)实现的 AirDrop 支持已扩展至 Pixel 8A 和 9A,通话语音翻译功能(Voice Translate)现已登陆 10A,而“代接留言”(Take a Message)功能现在适用于从 Pixel 6 开始的所有机型(印度除外,该功能在印度仍仅限于 10 系列)。最后,Google 相册中的对话式编辑功能已扩展至英国、德国、法国、西班牙和意大利,而“魔法提示”(Magic Cue)建议也将出现在新的消息应用中——尽管谷歌并未具体说明是哪些应用。

There are plenty of features announced at the Android Show that aren’t included in today’s rollout. Google says that its array of new Gemini Intelligence features will arrive on “select advanced devices” later this summer. Those should include the Rambler transcription tool, AI-generated widgets, and expanded Task Automation. Google hasn’t confirmed when other features, like redesigned emoji and the Pause Point well-being tool, will get an official release.

在 Android 发布会上公布的许多功能并未包含在今天的推送中。谷歌表示,其一系列全新的 Gemini 智能功能将于今年夏天晚些时候在“部分高端设备”上推出。这些功能预计包括 Rambler 转录工具、AI 生成的小组件以及扩展的任务自动化功能。至于重新设计的表情符号和“暂停点”(Pause Point)健康工具等其他功能何时正式发布,谷歌尚未给出明确时间表。
