Pixel Lookup feature: How it works

To use it, users simply need to head over to the Recents tab in the Phone app and tap on an unknown number. Alongside existing options such as Add Contacts, Message, and History, a new Lookup icon is now reportedly visible. When tapped, the device automatically searches for the selected unknown recent caller on the internet.

The Lookup feature is likely for phone numbers tied to businesses that are publicly listed on the internet, and not for personal numbers which are unlikely to be found in public databases. At present, it is reportedly only available on Pixel smartphones. Whether it will make its way to other Android devices too ******** unclear.

In addition to Lookup, another new feature in the Phone app is reported – a shortcut for Contact ringtones. It appears in the settings of the Phone app, below the Audio Emoji option, it is suggested. This feature is speculated to not have been widely rolled out and may only be available to select users.
