- Some Pixel users say that extra dim is less efficient after updating Android 16.
- Reports are different, with other pixels owners say that their devices are not affected.
- The Google Account suggested that the third party app could cause this problem.
If your pixel screen feels a bit bright with extra dim active active, you may not be imagining things. A handful of Reddate users are reporting that this feature is less effective after installing Android 16 updates, though not everyone is watching the same behavior.
A third thread echoed the emotions, but when some commentators agreed that this feature seems less effective, the others did not worry. The owners of Pixel 7, Pixel 9 Pro, and Pixel 9A said that the additional dams still work for them as expected, which suggests that the matter may be related to the device.
An official Google Account recommended that a user tried safe mode to reject third -party apps.
Some users found that their extra dimmed slider has moved to the middle post update, which in some cases can explain the growing sparkle. However, even after manually returning the slider in his lower layout, some say that dimming is still weak than ever. A Google official account recommends that a user try the safe mode to reject third -party apps, but it is unclear whether it has been tried or made any difference.
Earlier, we saw in Android 16 beta 2 that the extra Madh was directly connected to the shining slider in the Pixel 9 series, which removed the stand toggle. Although it has made more automatic blurred, it may explain some confusion, though not all users who report the issue are using the Pixel 9 devices.
Are you watching the same behavior on your pixel with Android 16? If the extra madh is working for you in a different way, or still works well, tell us in the comments.
