\nGoogle\u2019s Pixel series has a fantastic update coming for those fond of the Now Playing feature. Now Playing allows Pixel devices to constantly listen out for music in the background and on-device. If it hears a song, it\u2019ll display the name of the song in the Now Playing widget and the Now Playing History.<\/p>\n
The update to Now Playing includes setting a default music player app if you want to listen to any of the songs in your Now Playing history.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s also adding support for album art. Google announced this with the most recent Pixel Drop, but the update now hits Pixel devices. Album art is part of the new \u201cenhanced Now Playing,\u201d which connects to Google Cloud to help identify songs that are hard for Now Playing to recognize. If you toggle on enhanced Now Playing, you\u2019ll start to see album art for newly listened-to songs.<\/p>\n
9to5Google<\/em><\/a> is reporting that they have started seeing the default player option, so it\u2019s likely to hit devices sooner rather than later.<\/p>\nThis will hit Pixel 6 devices and newer.<\/p>\n
