Google Wallet has rolled out a new feature for Android 16 users that allows flight tracking directly from the home screen. This feature, announced in October, provides persistent notifications for users who have added a boarding pass to their Google Wallet. These notifications include updates on boarding times and gate changes, enhancing the travel experience. Additionally, the feature activates shortly before takeoff, displaying the estimated time of arrival and a progress bar indicating the flight's duration. Tapping the notification leads users to their ticket page, which includes a link to Google Flights for further information. This integration with Gmail also serves to remind users to check in for flights that have not yet been added to their Wallet.
