Some Pixel 6 users are reporting seeing Adaptive Sound pop up on their Pixel 6 phones. This is a feature that was present on Pixel 5 phones in the past.<br \/>\nPeople are wondering why Adaptive Sound is even on Pixel 6 phones<br \/>\nWith Adaptive Sound, the phone would use the microphones to \u201clisten\u201d to the ambient audio. It would then adjust the speaker\u2019s quality based on what it hears. The phone would equalize the audio to get the best audio quality based on what\u2019s going on around the listener.<br \/>\nPeople who used the Pixel 5 phones say that Adaptive Sound was used to compensate for the phone\u2019s poor speaker quality. They used the vibrating glass method for its earpiece. However, people are wondering why the Pixel 6 really needed to gain the ability. They use honest-to-goodness speakers for the earpiece.<br \/>\nThe speakers on the Pixel 6 might not be the best on the market, but they still offer full, balanced, and punchy sound. Adding Adaptive Sound to Pixel 6 phones might just be a move to keep the software consistent with all Android 12 Pixel phones.<\/p>\n<p>This feature came without an update<br \/>\nA writer for Android Police concluded that the feature came without any type of update. A Pixel 6 Pro was powered on for the first time, and within a few minutes, the setting just appeared<br \/>\nThis means that the feature was living in Android 12\u2019s code for some length of time; it could have been for months for all we know. Since it already existed in the software, Google could trigger it without any sort of update.<br \/>\nThis isn\u2019t really something that\u2019s new; a lot of time, a feature will be hidden within the software\u2019s code. A person can only find it if they dig into the actual code. This is how people sometimes find out about features that are coming before they launch.<br \/>\nIf you worry about privacy, don\u2019t enable this feature<br \/>\nSince Adaptive Sound uses the microphones, there\u2019s always the matter of privacy. The microphones need to take a recording of the audio, which doesn\u2019t seem trustworthy to most people.<br \/>\nBy the way that Google is phrasing it, it appears that the audio never actually leaves the phone, however. The company states that the audio is \u201cnever sent to Google.\u201d The ambient noise is most likely processed internally.<br \/>\nIf you want to enable it, it\u2019s pretty simple. Go to your settings and tap on the \u201cSound &amp; Volume\u201d section. From there, you should see the Adaptive Sound section.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nThe post Pixel 6 Phones Silently Get Adaptive Sound Feature appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Pixel-6-Case-AM-AH.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s always nice opening up your settings to randomly find a new feature.
