One of the many updates that come with the Android 11 operating system is the inclusion of app suggestions, a new feature that makes it easier for consumers to access mobile apps that will suit their needs and interests.
App suggestions are included on the bottom row on Pixel home screens, allowing consumers to efficiently access them if they choose to activate the feature. To generate suggestions, Android 11 analyzes the apps that the consumer already uses the most .
Should users choose to disable the feature, they can do so by going into their Pixel's Settings and then clicking the switch that says 'Suggestions on Home Screens.' The feature can be enabled again by clicking the same switch back.
