Google is now rolling out a fix for buggy Pixel lock screens after Android 16
Thankfully, a Google spokesperson has confirmed to Android Authority that the problem has been addressed:
A fix for this issue has begun rolling out today [July 8 – ed]. It’s automatic and users don’t need to take any action.
We’re guessing this is a gradual release, so you might have to wait a couple of days if you haven’t received the fix yet. Nevertheless, this is great news for affected Pixel owners, as these users have been waiting weeks for a solution to the issue.
Affected Pixel users reported various issues with their phone lock screens after Android 16. These problems included tap-to-wake not working, the screen not turning on after tapping the power button, extreme variations in brightness, an unresponsive fingerprint scanner, and more.
