Among many new features on the Google Pixel 9 series, there exists something called Adaptive Touch. It adjusts the touch sensitivity of the device dynamically owing to various factors.

Adaptive Touch enhances touch responsiveness if it detects wet fingers or if there is a screen protector. This feature guarantees an uninterrupted experience even when your fingers are wet or have a screen protector on.

How Adaptive Touch feature works

To access Adaptive Touch, follow these steps:

Go to Settings.
Select Display.
Choose Touch sensitivity.
Toggle Adaptive Touch on or off (it's enabled by default).

This is going to be a life-changing feature for users who want a hassle-free experience. With Adaptive Touch, the Pixel 9 can adjust its touch sensitivity according to any ambient or activity-based sense.

Adaptive Touch makes for the most important improvement over earlier models, and one is a little surprised that Google did not taut it at launch. At any rate, it's here in the Pixel 9 series, and users won't be able to stop themselves from appreciate it.
