Pixel Watch Update Brings 3D Emoji and Improved Gestures

Google has rolled out its latest Pixel Watch software update, which brings several new features to older models. Among them is the transition of the watch's emoji design to Google's new 3D style, first introduced on Pixel phones in Android 17.

The new emoji design aims to add more life and character to each icon, as described by Google in a recent post. This update applies not only to Pixel Watch but also to other devices from various manufacturers, including Nothing, Lenovo, Xiaomi, Oppo/OnePlus, Honor, and Motorola.

The September software update for Pixel Watch 2, 3, and 4 includes the new emoji design alongside improved gesture support and more. This update brings the same features that were previously available on the Pixel Watch 5 to older models, making them more in line with newer devices.
