Google is rolling out a new Pixel Troubleshooter app that can help you identify and fix battery and network issues on your phone. The app is only available on the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro at the moment, but Google may make it available on older Pixel phones in the future.
The Pixel Troubleshooting app works as a system app. This means that it doesn’t work as a standalone app, but its tools can be found in the phone’s settings. It is designed to provide intelligent diagnostics and troubleshooting for common issues like battery draining too quickly or connectivity issues, then suggests resolutions in simple steps or allows users to share diagnostic data with Pixel Care support agents.
The Battery Diagnostics section of the app gives you several options that might better describe your battery issues. It then allows you to run diagnostic tests based on your issue and presents support information on how to resolve it. For example, if you notice battery drain, you can run a test to find apps that are using too much battery. The app will also provide you with tips to improve your battery life.

The Pixel Troubleshooting app is a late addition to the Pixel lineup, but it’s been welcomed considering Apple has had a similar tool for a while now. Let’s hope that this tool does not remain a Pixel 8 exclusive series and eventually trickles down to older models as well.
