Google brings Pixel Watch 5's Smart Wake alarm to older Pixel Watches
Owners of earlier Pixel Watch generations get the intelligent alarm that debuted on the Pixel Watch 5.
Google is expanding Smart Wake, the intelligent alarm feature that came with the Pixel Watch 5, to earlier generations of its smartwatch. Previous Pixel Watch models are receiving it, and the company presents the feature as a way to end groggy mornings.
Smart Wake is an intelligent alarm rather than a plain fixed-time alert, and it is the alarm feature Google introduced on the Pixel Watch 5. It now reaches the watches released before that model.
For owners of an earlier Pixel Watch, the change means the alarm on their wrist works like the one on the newest generation. The feature arrives as part of the software Google is delivering to those devices, so no new watch is needed to get it.
The expansion covers previous generations of the Pixel Watch line, the models that came before the Pixel Watch 5.
