The new Google Weather icon set has officially rolled out in the At a Glance and Pixel Weather widgets after being initially spotted in February. The new icons, which feature some 3D elements, are now available in Pixel Launcher’s At a Glance widget, the Pixel Weather widgets, and the standalone At a Glance widget for all Android devices.
The design of the new icons is inspired by last year’s Google Weather app redesign, with a darker color palette compared to the previous flat icon set. For example, the yellow of the sun now leans more towards orange. However, the new color palette has not been integrated into Google Weather or the search card yet, while the Google Weather app on Wear OS continues to use a different set of icons.
The changes are most noticeable in the Pixel Weather widgets, but they are still quite prominent in the At a Glance widget as well. The update to the new icon set was rolled out widely on Thursday morning as a server-side update, with many users waking up to the refreshed look of the widgets.
Overall, the new Google Weather icon set brings a fresh and modern design to the At a Glance and Pixel Weather widgets on Android devices. The addition of 3D elements and a darker color palette enhances the visual appeal of the widgets, offering a more dynamic and realistic representation of weather conditions. The update is a continuation of Google’s efforts to improve the user experience and aesthetic appeal of its weather-related features.
