    Fayth, 07 Oct 2017I've heard this feature somewhereIf think you're thinking that it was available on iOS before Android you would be mistaken. The DriveMode app, which does EVERYTHING the Pixel Ambient Services app does and more, hit the Play Store almost 2 years ago. Apple did bake the feature into iOS 11, which was released a few weeks back.

    So if you're talking about the feature being "baked into" the OS, that may be correct, but if you're talking about availability, you would be mistaken.

    DriveMode has the Bluetooth pairing do-not-disturb auto-enable, as well as moving vehicle auto-do-not-disturb or auto-reply. I've been using it for well over a year, and it's perfect. I HATE dealing with my phone when driving, and it does the trick. Auto auto-reply (is that redundant?) is the cherry on top.

      Well... took them long enough to implement that. My Moto G 1st gen (from when Google still owned it) already has that feature.

            I'd hate to be interrupted by my phone while driving. I prefer my missus screaming at me to turn left :(

              I watched the launch in detail. It just keeps getting event better. A new level.
