If you’ve been curious about the availability of the Circle to Search feature on your Motorola phone, you’ve come to the right place.
Circle to Search is a clever tool that lets Android users draw a circle on their screens to initiate a search, making the process quick and intuitive. This feature has been gradually rolling out to Google Pixel, Samsung, and other brands, and now Motorola users want in on the fun too. For weeks, Motorola fans have been buzzing and asking about its availability. Finally, we have a response that details the supported phones.
Here’s a list of supported Motorola devices
Here’s the scoop: Circle to Search is currently supported on select Motorola devices. According to a recent update from a Motorola forum mod, this handy feature is available on the following models:
- Motorola Edge 50 Ultra
- Motorola razr 50
- Motorola razr 50 ultra
- Motorola razr+ 2024
- Motorola razr 2024
If you own one of these devices, you can start enjoying the convenience of drawing a circle on your screen to initiate a search.
What about other Motorola devices?
For those with models like the Motorola Edge 50 Pro, the story is a bit different. Circle to Search is currently not supported on the Edge 50 Pro. The mod acknowledged, “I know this is not what you are expecting, but we, agents, are also suggesting this to be possible in the future.”
Motorola hasn’t provided a definitive reason for the absence of Circle to Search on devices like the Edge 50 Pro, but it’s worth noting that feature rollouts can vary based on hardware capabilities, software compatibility, and strategic decisions. The Android 15 update brought several changes and improvements, but some features like Circle to Search seem to have missed the bus for certain models.
Before the Android 15 update, users had high hopes for a slew of new features, including advanced Always-On Display (AOD) options, Theft Detection, improved camera functionalities, and, of course, Circle to Search. While some features made the cut, others, like our elusive search tool, are still in the waiting room.
The mod’s statement suggests that user feedback is making waves within Motorola’s decision-making circles. While Circle to Search isn’t here yet for the Edge 50 Pro, the possibility of its future arrival isn’t off the table. Motorola has been proactive in gathering user feedback and addressing concerns, as seen with their recent innovations in public safety technology and collaborations with Nokia on drone integration.
For now, if you own a device like the Edge 50 Ultra or razr 50 series, enjoy the perks of Circle to Search. For others, especially Edge 50 Pro users, keep your eyes peeled for future updates and announcements. Motorola seems to be listening, and with enough user interest, Circle to Search might just make its grand entrance on more devices.
