Google is bringing new one-handed gesture controls to the Pixel Watch 3 as part of the latest March Pixel Drop.
Users will soon be able to answer calls, take photos or pause workouts using simple gestures like a double pinch or a wrist turn – no need to touch the screen. These gestures were previously introduced on the Pixel Watch 4 and were first spotted in development back in late 2025.
While earlier Pixel Watch models offered limited gesture support, this update gives Pixel Watch 3 users more complete hands-free control, catching up to similar features long available on Apple and Samsung smartwatches.
