    Just got the update, not seeing the cinematic wallpaper button or the emoji one in the wallpaper and style menu.

    Any suggestions how to turn it on?

    Edit: on pixel 7 btw

        Could be, its very weird because all the features have already been mentioned in Pixel tips app. For sometime i thought i was going insane and couldn’t follow the simple instructions mentioned in the tips app x(

    I was looking forward to the feature where the timer for a selfie starts after raising the palm, but it’s not working. Like the other features, it’s probably still being rolled out?

    edit: After updating the camera app, palm selfie is working as well now.

        For the emoji wallpapers there’s an update for Emoji Workshop Wallpaper on the play store. I’m still trying to figure out how to get palm selfies working though. Does anyone have it available already (Pixel 7 pro)?

    Got it on my Pixel 6 Pro, cinematic wallpaper hangs when I try to use a photo from a shared Google photo album.

    Edit: Worked the second time I tried. Impressed by the cutout, seems better than the fake bokeh blur cutouts.

    I’m still waiting for the OTA, since I got the last Pixel Feature Drop early…I’ll be last in line this time. I’m excited for the Emoji Workshop feature, the options for generating cute wallpapers delightful!

      I think there might be some issues. I’ve seen a lot of people who have AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, Mint and others report that they still have not received the updated. I saw some issues about contact sync and messed up 5G signal. I’m not sure what is true and what’s not because the carriers and Google never tell us what’s going on.

        Yeah, it’s frustrating because communication with one’s users is important. It doesn’t even have to be an overly detailed post. Just a we’re sorry there are problems with the June Pixel Feature Drop.

          Exactly! A simple post on social media or whatever would do. Instead we get the silent treatment and wonder what’s going on.

            It’s surprising they’ve not got their social media teams working on something so simple. Being a Corpo sucks the empathy out of people, I suppose.

    Got it a few hours ago. Not much that I’m interested in is included, bar security issues, but the changes should keep others happy. However, I do appreciate the new Enhanced PIN Privacy setting, which hides the animation and the numbers showing when you type in the PIN.
