Pixel Buds app now seems in Pixel Launcher [U: Themed icon]

On Pixel telephones, Google beforehand hid the Pixel Buds app from showing within the launcher, however that has now been reversed.

Replace 10/11: Google Pixel Buds 1.0.680489030 on the Play Retailer provides a Themed icon. The overwhelming majority of first-party apps have one, however there are nonetheless a number of stragglers.

Authentic 9/20: Model 1.0.673625792 of the Pixel Buds companion consumer provides help for the Pixel Buds Professional 2 forward of subsequent week’s launch. This replace additionally now reveals the Pixel Buds app, which I believe has a pleasant icon, within the Pixel Launcher if headphones have been paired/saved.

As such, you may put it in your Pixel’s homescreen to shortly entry Pixel Buds settings as a substitute of getting to put a “widget”/shortcut that reveals a dwell image of your headphones (with the right coloration) that’s badged within the bottom-right nook. 

For some folks’s homescreens, that shortcut appears a bit misplaced. My most well-liked resolution is to make use of the Battery widget, which might instantly open these settings, or use the Bluetooth Fast Settings Tile.

The Pixel Buds app icon was by no means hidden on different Android units, simply Google’s. Pixel Buds 1.0.673625792 is extensively rolled out by way of the Play Retailer.
