Why say "Your Pixel can now..." when my Pixel can't? Why not say "Pixel 8 and newer devices can now...".
JTskulk, it is only your Pixel that can not. It works for older Pixels as well, but they specifically tied a few kill switches to your commonly known geo-locations and anyone who ties their shoelaces in a fashion deemed less mertiable.
