With Google Pixel 9a, Google is bringing a feature called Battery Health Assistant which automatically helps manage the long term health and performance of its battery as it ages. Battery health assistance will also tune the phone’s charging speed based on adjusted capacity. You may notice a slight change in battery charging performance. Battery health assistance settings on Pixel 9a aren’t customizable by the user. (Check here for more info)

This feature is also supposed to come to other Pixel devices (not all) but it could be optional. With a recent Settings Services app update Google has added the necessary things for the feature and I was able to activate the setting on my Pixel 9. Here are some screenshots - 

 

You will find the Battery Health Assistant feature under the Battery health settings. Since the feature will be optional on Pixels (except 9a, but I am not sure), you can turn it off easily. 



The feature is not rolling out yet and may come to pixel devices with the stable release of Android 16.
