Enable Screen Protector modeMake your phone feel more alive and responsiveCloseWhether it's Pixel 6, Pixel 8, or Pixel 10, applying the screen protector is the first thing I do to protect my investment of hundreds of dollars. However, whenever I applied a screen protector, I always noticed a hesitation between touch input and response from the screen. After I flipped the screen protector mode, the difference was night and day. Even if you are not using a screen protector, turning this on makes the entire UI feel more alive and responsive to the lightest touch. You can head to Home Settings > Search settings and enable the Swipe to start search toggle from the following menu.
