- An Android Authority teardown has revealed that Google is working on an easy way to manually enable Now Playing functionality.
- Now Playing runs in the background and uses on-device machine learning to automatically identify music.
- However, the company is working on a Now Playing Quick Settings tile that would let users manually identify a track.
Google has offered Now Playing functionality on Pixel phones for years now, using on-device machine learning to passively identify music playing around you. However, it looks like Google could soon let you manually activate the feature.
