For most Pixel users, it has been fine. For a significant and growing number, it hasn\u2019t. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">The issues range of \u201cerratic\u201d touchscreen input, widgets disappearing and phones not connecting to 5G. One user on Google&#8217;s own Pixel support forum titled their post &#8220;Pixel June 2026 update disaster&#8221; and judging by the experiences of others, they&#8217;re not alone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">Here\u2019s a handful of reported issues with several complaints backing them up, which devices are affected, and what you can do about each one.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed\">Touchscreen Inputs Reversed Or Frozen On Google Pixel Phones<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"-webkit-line-clamp:2\" class=\"Ccg9Ib-7 _8XF2kHYM\">The Google Pixel 10 Pro is having some issues with Android 17.

Swipe up and the page scrolls down, as one Redditor explained, or &#8220;erratic random scrolling&#8221; another complained about. Other touchscreen issues appear to include screen taps registering for several seconds and dead zones where parts of the screen simply don\u2019t respond. Affected devices include the Pixel 7, 8, 9, and 10 series.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">The official Pixel Community account on Reddit advised affected users to clear the cache of the Pixel Launcher app, or reboot in safe mode. If the problem persists, Google says the issue may be a third-party app and removing them one by one to find the culprit is the best workaround.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">But another Redditor found that turning off triple tap to zoom in the accessibility settings fixed some touchscreen issues, which others claimed worked on their devices too.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">Workaround: Settings  Apps  See all apps  Pixel Launcher  Storage &#038; cache  Clear cache. If that doesn\u2019t work, reboot into safe mode to see if problems persist. If they don&#8217;t, it may be a third-party app issue. Alternatively, turning off triple tap to zoom in accessibility settings may work too.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed\">5G Dropping To LTE On Google Pixel Phones<\/h2>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">A 5G connectivity issue is&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2026\/06\/22\/google-pixel-android-17-update-bugs-and-fixes\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Android 17 Is Causing New Issues For Google Pixel Owners: The List https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2026\/06\/22\/google-pixel-android-17-update-bugs-and-fixes\/ Publish Date:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":278949,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/imageio.forbes.com\/specials-images\/imageserve\/69178a057b8b709588332327\/0x0.jpg?format=jpg&height=900&width=1600&fit=bounds","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[70,72,86],"class_list":["post-278948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-android","tag-google","tag-pixel","tag-samsung"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/278948"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=278948"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/278948\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":278950,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/278948\/revisions\/278950"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/278949"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=278948"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=278948"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=278948"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
