For Pixel owners, the start of a new month often brings a pleasant surprise: the latest software update. And this August is no different. Google has started rolling out the newest August 2025 security update to all eligible Pixel devices. The OTA is packed with security patches and a few key bug fixes to keep your device running smoothly and securely.
This patch is a comprehensive one in the security aspect. It covers a wide range of devices from the Pixel 6 all the way up to the newest Pixel 9 series, including the Pixel Tablet and Pixel Fold. If you own one of these phones, you can expect a notification soon—if you haven’t received it already. It’s always a good idea to check for the update and install it to ensure your phone has the latest protections.
What brings the August 2025 security update for Google Pixel devices
The August 2025 security update for Google Pixel devices includes several crucial security patches. It addresses a total of six vulnerabilities, some of which are classified as critical.
Beyond the security aspects, this update also brings some welcome bug fixes. For those who own a Pixel 7 or newer model (including the Tablet and Fold), the update includes some helpful improvements. One fix addresses a common issue where the scheduled dark theme wasn’t working correctly. So, those who rely on this feature to save their eyes and battery life are in luck. Additionally, a fix has been rolled out for some users who were experiencing issues with both three-button and gesture navigation. This should make interacting with your phone more reliable and consistent.
As usual, this security patch doesn’t introduce any new features. However, it’s always best to install these types of updates as soon as they become available. They help keep your device secure against potential attacks from bad actors.
