What you need to know
- Google deploys a new visual for your headset and your headphones on Android.
- The updated notification shows the color coded rings around the icons for each earpiece and the case, giving you a quick and upright update.
- The icons will appear to show if your headphones charge and if the case is unloading power.
Google updates how Android shows you the battery life for your Favorite headphones and headphones, making the design much cleaner so that you can quickly see the power of your audio equipment.
Before this change, connected devices showed a battery icon with a percentage under each accessory icon. Now Google has reorganized the arrangement to be more readable and visually clear, as the first spotted by 9TO5GOOGLE.
The new helmet battery pop-up is delivered with Google Play Services Version 25.30.31 and works on all Android devices.
A more intelligent way to check your costs
Once the update has landed, the contextual window of the battery is different, each earpiece and the load case displaying a color with color code around its icon, as well as tiny symbols at the top of each circle. Open the case of your headphones and you will get a clear visual reading on their battery.
Above each circle, you will see a small state icon, like a lightning when it takes care, and the percentage of battery for the left bud, the box and the right bud is to the right below.
In this new update, the case now has a battery discharge icon and a green ring which is not entirely full, showing that it feeds the left and right headphones. The previous notification has not shown this information.
There was no modification of the compact notification which shows all the percentages in a single line, according to 9TO5. This new design is synchronized with the ring design page for the page details of the Bluetooth device that has been introduced in Android 15 QPR2 on Pixel.
