April 2023 Update for Pixel Phones fixes Bluetooth Connectivity Issue

The latest monthly update for Pixel phones is now rolling out. Monthly security updates for Pixel phones are usually released on the first Monday of the month. But this month’s update has come a week late. The April 2023 update is being rolled out for Pixel phones running Android 13.

The last monthly update released in March was a big update with several bug fixes. And so there were only a few bugs left after the last update and now on the latest April 2023 update most of the remaining bugs have been addressed.

Even though it is a small update, it is an important one since it also contains security updates. As mentioned earlier the update is rolling out to Android 13 running Pixel phones, Pixel 4a to Pixel 7 Pro. Here are the build numbers for each phone.
