Here’s a quick tip for keeping up to date with notifications arriving on your phone.Some people give more importance for the simplicity and battery savings of a basic LED notification light. But actually, the Pixel’s Ambient Display mode gives you a great gentle reminder on your screen .

whenever a notification is sitting waiting for your attention. The Pixel and Pixel XL actually have a notification LED located on the far left side of the loudspeaker at the top of the phone, though you wouldn’t know it because it’s not enabled by default.

If you want to change from Ambient Display mode to the notification LED or if you want to have both for the total package of alertness, we have given you a procedure below:

Go to your phone’s Settings.

Click on  Notifications.

Click on the Gear icon in the top-right corner.

Tap on the toggle next to “Pulse notification light”.

And that’s it! Now the Pixel will show you blinking its notification light when you have a notification waiting.  There are no more settings or configuration options that allow you to change the color or frequency, but you’ll at least have that extra little nudge — in addition to Ambient Display — letting you know your phone has something to tell you.
