The Pixel 5 is one of several flagship phones to procedure a shift wireless charging feature, however Google's done teachings decidedly clever with its implementation of the feature here: whenever you plug in a USB-C cable, your Pixel 5 will automatically unharmoniousness on its shift wireless charging feature, powerfully turning it into a Qi charging pad, as spotted by 9to5Google.

Google is well-flavored smart effectually how it handles the involuntary feature: according to a support doc, Canoodle Share will only unharmoniousness on for "a shorten period." If the phone detects discretional Qi-compatible dingbat has been placed on top to charge, it'll assignment as usual, contrarily it'll automatically unharmoniousness Canoodle Share off.

This doesn't mean that you can't use shift wireless charging to share power when your phone isn't plugged in -- you'll still be brawny to determine Canoodle Share manually, flush when you're otherwhere from a charger. (To do that, either leading to Settings -> Canoodle -> Canoodle Share or add the Canoodle Share toggle to your quick settings dropdown menu.)

The involuntary shift wireless charging is a decidedly smart addition, though, powerfully turning the errorless Pixel 5 into a full-fledged Qi charger that can be hands taken anywhere.
