TL;DR
- Pixel Weather is getting its new white-background icon on older Pixel models after debuting with the Pixel 11.
- The app now shows when the forecast was last updated, making it easier to gauge how current the information is.
- Google has also renamed AI Weather reports to Weather Brief, with the update rolling out in version 1.1.202.
When Google launched the Pixel Weather app with the Pixel 9 series, there was genuine excitement. Pixel owners who relied on AccuWeather, The Weather Channel, and other third-party weather apps finally had a native app to work with. But since a weather app does little beyond telling you about the day’s weather, Google often keeps things exciting with occasional UI tweaks, and one such update is now rolling out.
The Pixel Weather app used a blue background, but things are changing with the latest update. In the new Pixel Weather app, screenshots shared by 9to5Google show that the blue background is gone. You can still see traces of the previous background, but it doesn’t give the same feel as before.
