Does your phone's camera have a focus lock indicator?

Something I really like about Nokia's (including the old ones) is that they have a focus lock indicator. It will let you know if whatever you are pointing at is actually in focus. Unfortunately Pixel for example does not have such a feature, so I'm not sure when I'm taking a close up photo if the subject is actually in focus.

2. enable USB debugging on your phone: Settings>About phone>Software information> Tap "Build...

Got this weird survey from Google. Are they thinking of getting rid of Assistant in Android Auto?

Just got this survey a few hours ago. The AA UI seems kind of dated but I'm not sure why would get rid of Assistant in the car.
