The Google Pixel Watch may soon receive a significant upgrade with the introduction of the ‘At a Glance’ feature from Pixel smartphones, according to recent evidence. 9to5Google reported that this feature was found in the code for the latest version of Google Assistant for Wear OS, with the same feature described as ‘proactive_complications’. The feature, as it currently stands, would display the weather along with a countdown to upcoming events. However, the feature may be limited in its use due to its inability to fit neatly into circular watch faces, although Google may create new faces to suit the feature. It may also be less useful than its smartphone equivalent, as the phone feature displays more information, such as package delivery alerts, fitness data, a timer, and more.
The upcoming feature’s usefulness may depend on how customizable it is for the user, as it is currently unknown if users can choose what data is displayed. The feature is still in development, and Google may still make changes to how it is implemented before its launch. The Pixel Watch already boasts impressive capabilities, but the addition of the At a Glance feature could make it even more useful.
