Google's Pixel Studio app, launched in 2024 alongside the Pixel 9 series to showcase its AI-based image-generation capabilities, has seen its core features removed in its latest update. Version v2.3.001.911719150 now redirects users to the Gemini app, specifically its Nano Banana feature, for creating new images and stickers. While the app's basic screenshot editing interface remains accessible, its future on Pixel 9 and 10 series devices is uncertain. Pixel Studio previously offered the ability to generate digital art, wallpapers, and stickers from scratch, as well as modify existing photos, exclusively on Pixel devices.
