The Pixel 11 Pro is expanding the functionality of its HiLight feature, giving users a new way to stay on top of incoming communications. While the lighting element was previously reserved for incoming calls, it now lights up to signal incoming WhatsApp messages as well.
This update significantly improves the everyday utility of the HiLight system. By bringing third-party messaging into the fold, users can easily see when they have received a new chat without needing to fully wake their screen or rely solely on standard audio alerts.
The addition of WhatsApp support highlights ongoing refinements to the device's visual alert capabilities, opening the door for broader app compatibility in future updates.
