The update to Android 12 might have broken the picture-in-picture (PIP) feature on certain Android devices. Google might have sent out a fix to Pixel models.

) was opened by someone using the handle"Goose VF1" who wrote"Since my latest update to Android 12 picture-in-picture for maps has stopped working. I've tried restarting, clearing cache, clearing data, uninstalling all updates, reinstalling all updates etc. etc.

The usual things that you might try to get the feature working such as restarting the phone, clearing the cache, uninstalling and installing the app, and praying are not working. A software update from Google is apparently what will be required to return PIP functionality to Android. And there is an indication that this already has started, at least for Pixel devices.user wrote that since the January 2022 update, he hasn't had a problem with PIP.

Could Google have included a fix for the PIP between the January 4th update that was sent out to the Pixel 3a series, the Pixel 4 series, the Pixel 4a and 4a , the Pixel 5, the Pixel 5a , and the January 14th update for the Pixel 6 line? We thought that we had the answer when we found that the changelist for the January update stated that all Android 12 compatible Pixel models received a"fix for issue causing PIP window to render incorrectly for certain apps.

But here's the thing. The update was first dropped on January 4th to eligible Pixels besides the Pixel 6 line. And some owners of these phones were still complaining about the broken PIP feature as recently as two days ago. Still, unless we hear from other Pixel users who cannot get picture-in-picture working, we have to conclude that the January update did include a fix for the broken PIP and we'd suggest that Pixel users try the feature again to see if it works.

We can also make the assumption that the person who started the thread owns a Samsung device from the content of his post , so as usual the Pixels might have been first to test the cure. Drop some feedback inside the comment box to let us know what is happening with your Android phone as far as PIP is concerned.
