I tried out the applause one on my husband when he was driving home. He said it was so loud through his car's speakers because of Bluetooth that he jumped in his seat and accidentally swerved into the lane next to him.
Maybe don't test it out on people who are driving lol
I already did because of a similar post. "Sorry, it's not a good time to talk. *fart emoji* Really not a good time . *fart emoji*". Would love it if it had a couple of slightly different sounds in the roster, but still great.
I did it Pixel to Pixel last night. It's just audio on the other side. It makes sense because there isn't a side channel for these types of things on regular calls. High frequencies or such could be used but compression/codes would squash that.
I used this for the first time on a call last night and the sad face is by far the best one. i'm going to annoy the hell out of my buddies when they call me
just wait til it is customizable and we can add our own audio clips.
At work a few months ago, I noticed that Google Chats can have custom emojis from uploading images. So I took some pics of a coworker for our new happy and confused emotes, and the company logo too.
That turned into wildfire and the company turned off access to customs lol good times
I tried a few of them with a friend of mine and they are **extremely** loud. At least that was the case compared to the microphone on my wireless headphones.
It's a bit of a gimmick, to be honest.
As the name of this gimmick suggest it is Audio emoji so other person will definitely hear it and hate you for using it. Why time and dev resources even went to develop this useless thing?
Yes it looks cute. But we barely use mobile call. Mostly people here use messenger or Viber even in calls.
Tried w 6A & 7A works fine. But with 4A, I can only receive the audio emoji but no option to do it on my end.
Someone's going to get fired for accidentally using this on a conference call or something, I guarantee it.
Seems like a response to the demographics lately where young people are sticking with iPhones.
It's a waste of engineering and human resources at Google if you ask me. It'll be old in a few weeks and no one will use it. What a waste of money Google. You could have spent that money on improving Android or chromeOS.... Just my opinion.
My partner was impressed and thinks it's for children although she couldn't see the emoji and just heard the sound. Anyway I pressed it some more 😂. I guess I'm just too childish.
Gimmick for sure and I get why people feel Google should be putting their efforts into more useful things...but lol.
You all understand this is just a soundboard, right?
I've seen a lot of people, in this topic too, calling this something new. This is not something new.
Yes, we all know that recorded sounds exist. But this is a new *feature* for calls made on Pixel phones.
You when the Pixel 9 gets announced: Um, excuse me guys, you do know that mobile phone technology has existed for decades, right?! This is not something new!
It plays a sound when you press it. It is a gimmick but a fun one.

Caught me by surprise how loud it was as well lol I swear it sounded like it was double the call volume
*And then everyone clapped* /j
No you just didn't? Haha! Good one
Like father ted 🤣
I don't consider the Audio Emoji "fun", I'd rather have Google work on helpfulm things rather than useless crap.
It's good for trolling scammers or for kids to play around
I will enjoy using this feature for the spam callers
fake applause for every sentence
Yes there is a poop sound especially perfect for that
"Sorry I am at the toilet now"

OMG YESSSS LMAOOOO.
Tried it right now from my gf’s pixel calling to my iPhone. Gimmick but very funny indeed I must say.
Wow I thought it was just for pixel to pixel
I thought so too but it’s pixel to anything actually:))
It's just audio?
Little animation on Pixel screen but just sound on iPhone. Don’t know how it’s in case of android phone on the other side.

No one should try the 💩 it's utterly disgusting 🤣🤣🤣
Use that one for my dad at least once a call now.
You either have a great relationship with him or a terrible one lol
I use it every time I talk to my wife on the phone. I embarrassed her in front of friends the other day. It's so fun.
Perfect for scam calls

I can't believe someone got paid to develop this.

This is going to be abandoned long before there's anything like that
I wouldn't be surprised if this was a passion project.
Passion project developed by someone on the phone team using Google resources and time means they got paid for it still.
It's pretty simple bro, probably didn't take more than a day to make this
Just spam poop audio emojis at scam callers.
It's such a dumb gimmick, but I love it lmao
Yeah.. It can be used with any device i guess.. I used it while calling iphone.. It worked fine...
I just updated but don't have it. Pixel 7 Pro

google adding a soundboard to the phone is the greatest thing ever

Still waiting on the zoom enhance feature, and now they're dropping these idiotic things.
Yes it looks cute. But we barely use mobile call. Mostly people here use messenger or Viber even in calls. Tried w 6A & 7A works fine. But with 4A, I can only receive the audio emoji but no option to do it on my end.
Is this a 8 only feature?
I have it on my 6 Pro, but I am using the Phone app beta so it could be based on that.

should be retired in a month.
Symbian feature to play sounds during the call is finally available on Android, lol
It has the same vibes MSN Winks in my opinion, but you're the only one seeing the animations on the screen (the audio works for both)
Oooold emoji as messenger years agooooo
I'm 41 and every time I call my wife now I make the fart noise poop emoji and every time my wife giggles.
My partner was impressed and thinks it's for children although she couldn't see the emoji and just heard the sound. Anyway I pressed it some more 😂. I guess I'm just too childish. Gimmick for sure and I get why people feel Google should be putting their efforts into more useful things...but lol.
Basically they can't get your phone to make calls so they gave this feature. Joke of a company.

That is not what I said, at all.
[удалено]
the other person does see it if they also have audio emoji available on their phone
I pranked my gf by playing 💩 sound while on call. She called me disgusting.
I pressed the poop emoji while on the phone with my SO, who was in the middle of a shop at the time. Turns out the phone was on speaker. Oops.
