Pixel Phone App Widely Rolling Out Audio Emoji Feature

Audio Emoji, a feature that allows users to express emotions and moods with fun sounds during calls, is now widely rolling out in the Phone app on Google devices. It was officially announced with the Pixel 8a and is available on all Pixel (8 and Fold) devices running Phone by Google preview (version 129). The feature offers six sounds with accompanying animations, including clapping hands, face with tears of joy, party popper, crying face, pile of poo, and drum. Users can access Audio Emoji from the calling screen or in the three-dot "More" menu.
