With how busy many of us are, it’s difficult to keep track of everything without using a calendar. There are plenty of great calendar apps for Android that make it easy to plan ahead, but the challenge is how to use them effectively. When you’re really, really busy, you might put off adding a calendar entry for an upcoming event, which could cause you to forget about it entirely. To help you remember things, the new Google Pixel 9 series automatically turns your screenshots into a searchable database, and it can even proactively suggest adding events to your calendar.
Out of the many new AI-focused features on the Google Pixel 9, the Pixel Screenshots app might just be the most useful one. The app uses an on-device AI model to analyze every screenshot you take. It not only parses the screenshot to extract text but also generates a description based on the contents of the image.
