Google Pixel 4’s Motion Sense gestures likely to work in 53 regions and support 23 me
Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL are set to launch in New York on October 15. The fourth generation Pixel devices are expected to be the first device being designed by the HTC team acquired by Google. Ahead of the launch, the search giant has made sure that it stays ahead of the rumor mill. The company first tweeted the rear design of the smartphone and then confirmed inclusion of Project Soli sensor module. With Pixel 4 series, Google will add facial recognition and gesture interface as well. However, this gesture-based interface will be limited to markets since it relies on advanced radar technology.
Now, a new report from XDA Developers reveals that Motion Sense, will work in 53 regions and support 23 media apps. The information about Motion Sense, Google’s name for Project Soli, comes via a pre-release APK. The feature will allow users to skip songs, snooze alarms and silence phone calls with gestures. The company has been working on Project Soli radar for a few years now. In order for it to work, Motion Sense needs to be certified with regulatory agencies of countries to transmit radio frequencies of that range. It has already been learnt that it won’t work in markets like India, Japan, Mexico, Australia and New Zealand.

It will work across 53 regions and support 23 media apps. This is higher than previous report which claimed support for 38 regions and 9 media apps. There is a possibility that Google will add support for more regions as soon as the device goes on sale. The list was reportedly found in an internal Google database and comes from a config called “mcc_whitelist”. The list of supported apps comes from a config called “media_app_whitelist”, both belonging to “oslo”, which is the codename for Motion Sense.

It could also be possible that these apps are getting support for those who use it outside India. A leak from This is Tech Today has already detailed how Motion Sense gestures will work.
