Google is porting over a tidbit from its Pixel Watch to the notification shade on Pixel phones with its Android 17 update, now live in the latest beta.
On Pixel Watch, swiping away all of your notification leads to a message saying that “You’re all caught up!” The message includes a little trophy icon. It’s a fun little way to say you’ve finished notifications.
Now, it’s coming to Pixel phones.
In Android 17 Beta 4, Google has ditched the long-standing “No notifications” message with the same “You’re all caught up!” message found on Pixel Watch. The change is subtle, but it’s a fun little tweak that feels nice across the company’s ecosystem. Whether or not other Android devices will do the same remains to be seen, but it’s a pretty safe bet that this is a Pixel-only tweak.
Graciously, the hidden shortcut for notification history still works. Tapping “You’re all caught up!” or the trophy icon will open up your notification history.
