Pixel 8 Pro's gets a temperature sensor - here it is in use
9To5Google

The thermometer app in the Pixel 8 Pro has multiple materials that it can take a reading of: Food & organic, Beverages & water, Cast iron, Ceramic & glass, Matte metal, Shiny metal, Plastic & rubber, Fabric, Wood, and Walls & windows.

After picking one, you point the sensor within 5cm of the object to quickly get a temperature reading.

In the future, after FDA review and certification, you will be able to measure your body temperature which can be saved in the Fitbit app.

The Pixel 8’s generative AI wallpaper feature is SO COOL!

You can create brand new wallpapers that nobody else has ever seen just by choosing a few topics and colors from some preset options. While you can’t go wild with custom prompts, you still have a ton of choice!

After you create and apply a wallpaper, it’s saved to your device so you can change to it at any time. You can also tap the pencil icon to modify the prompt used to generate it.

The wallpapers you generate have metadata added to them that lists the AI wallpaper version, the prompt used to generate it, the transform matrix, and a “credit” line that says “AI-generated with Google.”

Under the hood, Google’s generative AI wallpaper app uses an AI-generated text-to-image diffusion model to create wallpapers. (I believe at one point it used Parti, but that may have changed.) All the processing is done server-side, so it takes a few seconds for it to work.

The generative AI wallpaper feature is coming first to the Pixel 8. Since it works entirely server-side, there’s no reason it can’t come to other Pixels in a future update, like the upcoming December 2023 Pixel Feature Drop. (It’s being tested on the Pixel 6 & Pixel 7, in fact.)

The Google Clock app on the Pixel 8 can show weather info for different cities on the home screen! You have to go to settings to enable “local weather on clock” after which you’ll see weather info in the Clock tab as well as when using the “World” clock widget.

Note that the weather information is actually provided by a separate app called “Weather” (package name com.google.android.apps.weather) and not from the Google Clock app itself. This lets the Google Clock app show weather information without requesting the location permission.

This feature might come to the Pixel 5a and later in the December 2023 Pixel Feature Drop, but right now it’s only available on the Pixel 8 series.

Google started offering free VPN by Google One access starting with the Pixel 7, but they’re taking things a bit further with the Pixel 8 series!

VPN by Google One will now appear as a “built-in” VPN under Settings > Network & Internet > VPN. This will improve discoverability of the VPN that Google provides freely to Pixel 8 users and also make controlling its settings feel more native.

Under the hood, this integration is made possible by a new pre-installed app called AdaptiveVPN, system overlays that flip the config_advanced_vpn_enabled and config_pixel_vpn_enabled flags, and new code in settings added in Android 13 QPR1.
