Here's what to expect from the next Pixel Buds Pro firmware update.

The Pixel Buds companion app has been updated to v.1.0.568388397, which brings the currently hidden new features onboarding pages:

• Conversation Detection: While in Active Noise Cancellation mode, the headphones will automatically switch to Transparency mode and pause content when a conversation is detected; If this mode is activated accidentally, you can turn it off with a single tap;

• Hearing Wellness: To help improve your listening habits, you can check the current volume level of your earbuds media and get an exposure report, which tracks your accumulated listening volume over time.

• Clear calls: Richer, clearer phone calls by utilizing Bluetooth super wideband, which doubles the bandwidth. (This uses the LC3 codec)

Some of the info about this update has already surfaced earlier from 9to5Google. Google will probably roll out the update soon.

*There are a few more features that Kamila will announce shortly*
