Google is adding a new “safety check” feature to its Pixel smartphones

The company is expanding upon its personal safety features with a new’safety check’ tool. The tool is designed to make sure you’re okay if you’re out somewhere alone – for a walk or run.

When you enable the feature, you set a time for when you want it to check in. When that time comes, safety check takes over your whole screen and asks for your status. There’s no option for it to automatically call 911 – likely to prevent false positives.

There’s no equivalent for safety check built into iOS. It’s a continuation of Google expanding further into the area of personal safety.

The latest addition is a bedtime mode that’s being added to the clock app. Google has added a new bedtime mode to the app.

You can automatically get transcripts of your recordings in Google Docs. It’s always nice to see more cohesion between Google’s services and apps.
