Can anyone get live captioning to work? I'm not getting the option when I press a volume button.

I am going to use the new gestures for a week and see how i get on.
Everything working well. Dark theme is mostly good but looks odd on some parts. Mainly the calender widget

It's all good chap, I've been running it since the first beta. The Barclaycard app is the only app I have issue with, Santander app got an update about a month ago to fix compatibility, sure Barclays won't be far behind.
Other than that, if you use a 3rd party launchers Like Nova then you can't use gestures. I still prefer the 2 or 3 button anyway tbh, at least for now. The back button and hamburger menu inconsistencies **** me off.

I thought that wasn't ready just yet?

Just started the upgrade to Android 10 on my Pixel 3XL... wonder if its going to go smoothly lol

I've gone back to the Pixel Launcher from Nova for 10, took a little getting used to the new gestures but generally I quite like it.
If anything, it's made the phone feel new again

for what? genuinely the least excited for andriod update ive ever been
can the gestures be turned off and the back, home and other apps buttons still be there?
I have read that gestures are optional and that you can leave on the usual navigation bar if you wish, though I have no personal experience to corroborate.

Yes you can choose from 3 different navigation modes in the options. Not sure about the pixel 3 as the 3 button mode was never there originally on that but you can on the pixel 2.

ok good. i like the old style much more.

Well I like updates and wanted the official one after the beta.
What's not in that you wanted ? Headphone jack ?

I have a pixel 3XL and all three gesture and nav buttons are available to choose.
I am trying the new one this week but I gotta say I sometimes have trouble finding the sweet spot when pulling up recent/open apps.
Probably just me

Haven't head a jack for years as I'm a pixel 2xl owner since release.
Not a fault really as android has now got so good it doesn't need tweaking, but it's Sad that android updates just aren't what they used to be.
Soldato
Well yeah it's changed as the new release of android always used to come with the new phone (since pixel days) but last year they released early and then added new features to the pixel 3 and looks like they have done the same again.

Does anyone who has updated to Android 10 and who owns a Galaxy Watch had any issues?
The Galaxy Wear and/or Galaxy Wear plugin is really unstable and freezes. The watch battery is also draining so fast that the watch doesn't even last a day, it usually lasts three easily.
But we're talking about Samsung here though, they probably won't be testing Android 10 until 6 months from now which is when they'll start considering releasing Android 10 on their phones. It's not like they've had access to betas or anything!
