Google phones to get 'Battery health assistance' feature starting with Pixel 9a

We don't know which Pixel models will be supported, though.

"Your Pixel 9a will receive a software update that automatically helps manage the long term health and performance of its battery as it ages," the company explains. "Battery health assistance is a software feature that will roll out to a selection of Pixel devices starting later this year, designed to extend their usability," Google told 9to5Google in a statement.
