Android 12 is chock full of changes big and small, from a major visual overhaul with Material You to new privacy tools to help keep user data safe. As Google continues to push its phone lineup forward, some of those changes are exclusive to Pixel devices. The At A Glance widget will be a familiar sight to anyone with a Samsung phone, but it could be due for a rebrand — and an evolution — as part of Android 12.

 

Google's contextual widget could be renamed "Live Space" when the latest version of Android arrives later this year. The folks at 9to5Google managed to enable a menu for Live Space in the Google Assistant settings that replaces the At A Glance widget with something a little more robust. The new options list is much more fleshed out, though there's only one new option hidden among this list. That's the "At a store" toggle, which would prompt you with shopping lists and rewards cards stored in your Pay account. There's also a mysterious headphones toggle, though, without a title, we have no clue what it might actually do.
