Google Expands Digital Wellbeing Features for Android One Devices

Monday, October 22, 2018 8:45 pm Economical Google unveiled the digital wellness feature "Digital Wellbeing" at its annual Google I / O 2018 conference, which was held earlier this year. It is an initiative to provide users with more data on how they use their phones and to allow them to use this data to regulate the way they treat their devices. These features help users understand the habits of their smartphones and limit their use if they are excessive. Previously, these features were only available on Google Pixel phones, but Google also brought them to Android One phones with Android 9 Pie.

The Digital Wellness feature is gradually moving to more devices. The Nokia 7 Plus phone received this function last September and it's not for nothing. Indeed, Google is striving to extend Digital Wellbeing smartphones part of the initiative Android One. As you probably know, all Nokia phones recently released by HMD Global Oy are part of this initiative, including the Nokia 7 Plus.

The Google Play Store now indicates that those who wish to use these features must have a similar experience and have a Google Pixel or Android One phone running Android 9 Pie. This list is very succinct at the moment: Nokia 7 Plus and Nokia 6.1 Plus are technically the only devices that meet the standards.

However, it's a good sign, as it shows that Google will be the first to launch this feature for devices that are part of the Android One initiative. Users of these devices will be able to experience digital well-being in the near future.
