The recent update to Pixel Weather enhances the user experience with modifications to the “Forecasted weather” widget, which now features increased padding. In the 5×3 size, users will notice that the bottom line for tomorrow's forecast is no longer visible, and the 5×4 size provides only two days of forecasts compared to three, while the 5×5 size shows four days instead of five. This change addresses visual bugs, although it reduces the information presented.

Alongside these changes, the Google Clock app, also updated to version 8.6, has adopted the new colorful icon set previously introduced in Pixel Weather, moving away from the monochrome design. This update follows a similar transition in the app's version 7.14 released last June. The updated Google Clock is still being rolled out through the Play Store.

Additionally, a minor update to Google Calculator with version 9.1 has been released, though it does not appear to include any significant changes. The weather integration feature remains exclusive to Pixel devices.
