Google is reportedly working on an update for the Pixel Launcher that will allow users to turn off the At a Glance widget and relocate it on their home screens. In the latest beta version of Android 14 QPR2, a toggle has been discovered that enables users to choose whether or not to add the widget to their homescreen. Additionally, the update will allow the widget to act as a traditional widget, meaning it can be moved to different locations on the screen but cannot be resized. This feature has yet to be made available to users, and it is unclear when it will be released.
