Google Pixel 9 to Introduce AI-Powered Call To-Do List Feature

New Pixel 9 feature may use AI to auto-generate to-do lists from calls (APK Teardown)

Users should be able to review, copy, and share their AI-generated to-do lists directly from call logs. The Google Pixel 9 series, including the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, exclusively features a Call Notes tool in the Google Phone app. Call Notes uses the power of Gemini Nano to automatically generate call summaries and capture the important points discussed. Users can review these later from their call logs. It looks like Google is working on extending the functionality of Call Notes to include automatically generated to-do lists. We've found code evidence in version 156.0.702757710 of the Google Phone app suggesting that a new "Call To-do List" feature related to Call Notes might be in the works. The code strings correlate "Call To-do List" to "Fermat," which is the codename for the Call Notes feature. Given this correlation, it's our best guess that the "Call To-do List" will be an AI-generated summary of the to-dos discussed during a conversation. Essentially, AI will listen to your phone conversations and extract actionable to-dos from them. Since Call Notes works on-device, by extension, "Call To-do List" should also processed locally, meaning your conversational data will not leave your phone for privacy reasons. The strings also show that users will be able to review, copy, and share their Call To-do List from the call logs. Apart from "Call To-do List," we were also able to find and activate another upcoming feature for Google Dialer. Using the Call Screen feature, Dialer will now show how many spam calls it declined in a month. We were able to grab a screenshot of it, with the notification showing up as a popup in the call logs tab. We'll keep you posted when and if any of these features go live.

The Google Pixel 9 may soon get a powerful phone call feature

With the Google Pixel 9 series, Google offers a feature called Call Notes in the Google Phone app. Powered by Gemini Nano, the feature automatically generates call summaries and captures points discussed. Thanks to artificial intelligence, that feature could soon be expanded. According to Android Authority, an APK teardown has revealed code indicating that a new feature called "Call To-do List" may soon be available on supported devices. The code strings link "Call To-do List" to "Fermat," the code name for the Call Notes feature. Recommended Videos The report suggests the new feature will use AI to summarize any to-dos discussed during a conversation. In other words, AI will listen to your calls and extract actionable to-dos from them. Call Notes works on-device and is processed locally; the new feature will most likely work the same way. In doing so, the data won't leave your phone for privacy reasons. Pixel devices that support Call Notes include the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Along with a new "Call To-do List" feature, Android Authority has discovered another upcoming tool called Google Dialer. Once implemented, the Dialer will display the number of spam calls you've declined in a month. Whether tracking this number will be beneficial over time remains to be seen. Knowing how high this number grows monthly could be frustrating, right? Nonetheless, it's encouraging to see Google continually enhancing one of the most fundamental phone features: making calls. Google is increasingly integrating AI into its smartphones, particularly on Pixel devices. This includes features like Live Translate for real-time language conversations and Clear Calling, which filters background noise for clearer calls. AI enhances photography with tools like Magic Eraser and Photo Unblur and personalizes user experiences through Adaptive Battery and At a Glance. Creative features like AI Wallpaper and MusicLM assist in generating unique backgrounds and original music. Additionally, accessibility tools like Live Caption and Voice Access make Pixel phones more user-friendly for those with disabilities. There's no time frame for when the new calling features could be released to the public. Stay tuned.
