IT Home reported on July 27 that technology media 9to5Mac published a blog post yesterday, introducing the upcoming Pixel 9 series phones.“Pixel Screenshots” AI feature, similar to the “Recall” feature launched by Microsoft in Windows 11, answers user questions by saving screenshots.


working principle

“Pixel Screenshots” is basically similar to “Recall” in that it takes screenshots at regular intervals and stores them locally on the device, acting as a database for the AI.


Google wrote in the official introduction: "Pixel Screenshots helps you save information you want to remember later - such as events, places, etc. So you can find what you need immediately when you need it."

Google says Pixel Screenshots can help solve the following problems:

  • Forget your girlfriend's favorite restaurant

  • Forget the movies recommended by my girlfriend

  • I forgot the show my girlfriend recommended.

  • Forget what your girlfriend told you

Pixel Screenshots calls on local AI to summarize new and existing screenshots and answer your questions about the information in them.


These screenshots include cloud data from the user's old phone that is synchronized to their account, as well as new screenshots taken after the feature is turned on. Metadata such as web links, application names, and screenshot shooting times will be retained.


design

Pixel Screenshots uses the Material You language in terms of design, and there seems to be a grid option at the top. There is a floating "Search Screenshots" bar at the bottom with voice input and FAB.

Users can search like a conversation, and the results page will display a screenshot containing the required information. It is worth noting that there is a Gemini logo in the upper right corner. IT Home attaches the relevant demonstration video as follows:
