"In fairness to Google, Daily Hub was only ever in a "public preview," rather than a full release, but that hadn't stopped the company from advertising the phones with it. The company has now paused that preview, a spokesperson telling 9to5Google that it is "actively working to enhance its performance and refine the personalized experience." Apparently Google will reintroduce "an improved Daily Hub when it's ready.""
"If voice translation is halfway between a helpful feature and a gimmick, then Daily Hub leans even further into gimmick territory. It's a lot like the Now Brief Samsung introduced on its S25 phones, and it's supposed to act as a quick digest for your day as well as a place to find some inspiration based on your recent activity. It does the first part of that job just fine; it's maybe a more longwinded version of Google's At a Glance widget,"
Google launched the Pixel 10 line with prominent AI-enabled software features alongside hardware upgrades. Daily Hub collected weather, calendar events, and recommended content based on recent activity. Google paused the Daily Hub public preview less than two weeks after the phones reached stores to improve performance and refine personalization, with a promise to reintroduce an improved version when ready. The feature was only in public preview and did not appear on all Pixel 10 devices. Early user impressions compared Daily Hub to Samsung's Now Brief and Google's At a Glance widget, praising its digest function but criticizing its tendency to misinterpret search history and feel gimmicky.
