The issue with Pixel phones’ Bluetooth connectivity has been fixed in the April 2023 update.

The latest monthly update for Pixel phones is currently being distributed. Typically, Google releases monthly security enhancements for Pixel phones on the first Monday of the month. However, this month’s update arrived a week late. The April 2023 update is currently being distributed to Pixel devices operating Android 13.

The last monthly update, released in March, was a substantial one that included numerous problem fixes. Consequently, only a few defects remained after the previous update, and the vast majority of the remaining bugs have been resolved with the April 2023 update.

Even though it is a minor update, it is crucial because it contains security patches. As indicated previously, the update is rolling out to Pixel phones running Android 13 ranging from Pixel 4a to Pixel 7 Pro. Each phone’s manufacture number is listed below.
