Google’s April update will address several issues with its Pixel phones



It would be impossible for developers to release software that is completely free from bugs. This is because it would be impossible for developers to test out every possible scenario/situation, so usually over the course of months or years, new bugs are discovered and fixed.If you happen to own any of Google’s Pixel devices that are eligible for updates, then you might want to keep an eye out for Google’s April update. This is because based on the changelog, it seems that Google will be addressing quite a number of issues that have been plaguing the devices.
