Summary
- Google has introduced a handy Pixel Screenshots app on its Pixel 9 series to organize and enhance screenshots using AI technology.
- The Pixel Screenshots app can be loaded onto other phones using an APK, but the AI features may not work on all devices.
- Unfortunately, the official Play Store listing for Pixel Screenshots is limited to the Pixel 9 series and cannot be installed on other devices.
There is not much room for innovation in smartphones, as each update cycle seems to introduce fewer features than the previous year. But Google is trying something new and unique with the release of its Pixels 9 series, which offers a Pixel Screenshots app that organizes all your screenshots and uses AI to turn them into a souped-up list for saving later. It might not be as headline-grabbing as features like Add Me and Reimagine, but it’s handy and has now made its way online.

Finally a real small Android flagship
Code detective and known Google leaker AssembleDebug has shared an APK for the Pixel Screenshots app that can be installed on other phones without root. So far, we’ve installed it on a Pixel 8 Pro and a Galaxy S24, and the app launches without a problem. It downloads AI models separately when first run, although we’ve yet to see that process complete in the few minutes we’ve had with the app.
AssembleDebug used the app’s package name to track down the list of Pixel screenshots on the Play Store and also provided a link to it. However, it is limited to the Pixel 9 series and does not allow installation on other devices.
