Having the ability to forge music and movies onto the Pixel Pill is relatively straightforward. Simply open a media player of your choice and select something to watch or listen to.
As I approach the pill, I place my cellphone nearby, allowing myself to become acutely aware of its vibrations when it receives a notification. A notification will appear at the top, alerting you that media playback is being cast to the Google Pixel Tablet.
Once you’ve achieved this, regardless of the medium playing on your phone, it’ll seamlessly transition to your Pixel Pill.
Casting made straightforward
While surprisingly available on the Pixel 9 Pro, its absence is notable on other devices for now. The ‘Maintain near forge’ setting appears to be missing from both the settings menu and the Pixel 9 Professional Fold, even when running the latest Android 15 beta.
Notably, compatibility issues arise when using certain media apps, as not all apps have been optimized for seamless streaming; users may experience varying degrees of success depending on their chosen casting platform.
As Google continually introduces innovative features for the Pixel Pill, it is gradually transforming into an exemplary “one-stop-shop” for users’ diverse requirements. When combined with the optionally available Charging Speaker Dock, that’s particularly accurate.
