Google appears to be working on a new and fairly major update to its “At a Glance” feature on Pixel which will deliver new cards for sports scores, birthday reminders, and potentially even more.
Hidden behind the scenes of the first Android Canary release, new At a Glance changes are in the works in one of the biggest updates we’ve seen to the feature in quite some time.
Android Authority managed to enable the feature, which in its current state includes sports scores and birthday reminders on top of existing At a Glance features. These appear in a swipeable list on the homescreen, as well as appearing in a dedicated card on the lockscreen, including on the always-on display (AOD), changing to match the clock size and shape.
These features apparently stem from the previously spotted “Gemini Space,” but they are directly named as a part of At a Glance in this early build. Prior code leaks of this feature included finance info and “Daily Hub” suggestions, presumably similar to Samsung’s Now Brief.
As for when these changes might debut, it’s hard to say. As it stands currently, they’re not enabled by default in even Android Canary, which in itself isn’t directly attached to any specific Android version. That said, the nature of these features make them clear candidates for debuting on Pixel 10, or perhaps just with the wide release of the Android 16 redesign currently in beta.
