Pixel 6’s February update fixes Bluetooth, camera, and keyboard

Google today updated the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro alongside all other phones. The February update fixes Pixel 6 issues related to Bluetooth audio and the camera.

Of the five problems identified, all but one apply to Google’s latest phones. On the Bluetooth front, there are general improvements “with certain media codecs” – presumably LDAC – as well as a fix for an “issue causing audio playback to disconnect while using certain Bluetooth devices.”

Meanwhile, Google has addressed how the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro might reboot when using the camera “in certain conditions.”

All Pixel phones this month get a fix for the keyboard displaying over input text in certain conditions. Lastly, there are “connectivity fixes for specific carrier networks” for just the Pixel 4/XL, Pixel 4a 5G, and Pixel 5 on C Spire and Cellcom.
