Pixel Search app may reach older Pixel phones

A teardown of Android code suggests the new Pixel Search app, expected to debut with the Pixel 11, could also be rolled out to older Pixel devices. The catch: the app may require Android 17 QPR2 to run, which could leave the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro out of the update entirely. Google has not confirmed any official rollout plans.

Why now: Google fans are speculating about whether older Pixel models will get the new search experience after an APK teardown surfaced the compatibility requirement.
