Google Fi has deployed a network aggregation update combining T-Mobile and Verizon backends to enable dynamic 5G provider switching.
This capability currently requires Pixel 9 or newer hardware.
The update also introduces Wi-Fi Auto Connect+, an automated handshake and connection service for public hotspots available on recent Pixel, Motorola, and Samsung OneUI 9+ devices.
All traffic is routed through an encrypted tunnel, maintaining the existing $35 service baseline.
Automatically connect to public Wi-Fi
Google also introduced Wi-Fi Auto Connect+, which automatically connects your phone to public Wi-Fi networks without you having to sign in to an account first. The feature is supported by newer Pixel phones, Samsung phones with OneUI 9, and select Motorola devices.
According to Google, Google Fi encrypts your connection across all networks to protect your data.
Pricing and support
Monthly prices start at $35 and remain unchanged through 2025. Google is also offering incentives for purchasing the Pixel 11 Pro along with the Unlimited Premium plan.
