Pixel Weather App Coming to Pixel Watch with Wear OS 4

Google is expanding Pixel Weather to Wear OS with the Pixel Watch 4, featuring a Material 3 Expressive design and a layout similar to the existing Weather app. The new icon is the same yellow sun against a blue background, and the app includes hourly forecasts and M3 Expressive Tiles for temperature, high/low, and chance of precipitation. The app will presumably debut with the Pixel Watch 4 next month, but it remains to be seen whether Google will continue to update "Weather" or expect OEMs to offer their own apps.

Google is set to expand its Pixel Weather app to Wear OS devices with the upcoming Pixel Watch 4. The new app will feature a Material 3 Expressive design, similar to the existing Weather app on Android phones and tablets [1]. The design includes a new icon—a yellow sun against a blue background—and a layout that incorporates a large pill-shaped container displaying the current weather condition, temperature, high/low, and "Feels like" information [1].

The Pixel Weather app will also include hourly forecasts and M3 Expressive Tiles for temperature, high/low, and chance of precipitation. These tiles will enhance glanceability, with the location appearing above and the current condition below [1]. Additionally, the app will feature tiles for sunrise/sunset and UV index, along with watch face complications [1].

The Pixel Watch 4 is expected to debut next month, and the app's screenshots are already available on the Play Store [1]. Google has not yet announced whether it will continue to update the Pixel Weather app or expect OEMs to offer their own apps. This move aligns with Google's broader rollout of the Material 3 Expressive design language to Pixel 6 devices and newer, as well as Pixel tablets [2].
