Why it helps

The strip at the top of your Pixel’s home screen can show your next meeting, weather alerts, flights and commute delays as they become useful.

What you'll notice

The right information appears at the top of the home screen just when you need it.

How to set it up

Google Pixel

  1. Home screen
  2. Customize
  3. At a Glance
  1. Touch and hold an empty spot on the home screen
  2. Tap "Customize" (or "Home settings")
  3. Tap "At a Glance" and turn on the cards you want, such as "My Commute"

Pixel 6 and newer; commute cards on Pixel 7 and newer.

Based on reports from owners and the tech press. We have not yet checked it on a phone ourselves.

How to undo it

Turn the cards off in the same At a Glance settings.

Labels can differ. Menu names and their order vary between models and can change with a system update. If a step doesn't match your phone, search Settings for the feature name or one of its other names: smartspace, home screen widget, glance.
