    Google’s At a Glance weather icons are getting a controversial minimalist makeover

    • Android 16 QPR1 beta users are noticing a change to the weather at a glance icon.
    • The icon now appears flat and colorless.
    • This change is happening in QPR1 beta only, not stable Android 16.




    If you’re an Android 16 QPR1 beta user and noticed that At a Glance looks a little different lately, you’re not alone. Google has rolled out an update to the weather icons that appears to have users divided.

    At a Glance, which appears at the top of the Pixel Launcher, can show you a variety of information, including the weather. For weather, you’ll usually see a colorful icon representing the forecast and the temperature next to it. For example, if it’s going to be a cloudy day, you’ll see an icon that shows a yellow sun hiding behind some white clouds.
