In a recent development, Google has unveiled the Android 15 QPR1 beta, marking the initial test phase for the anticipated Pixel Feature Drop update. This latest firmware hints at a refreshing overhaul of the operating system, complete with user interface enhancements and captivating new animations. One of the standout applications undergoing a redesign is the Pixel Wallpaper app, which serves as a central hub for personalization on Pixel devices.
Google may revamp the Pixel Wallpaper app with the first Android 15 Pixel Feature Drop
As highlighted by Android Authority, the Pixel Wallpaper app showcases a transformed appearance in the Android 15 QPR1 beta. While this new interface is not yet available by default, keen observers have managed to activate it, providing a glimpse into the forthcoming changes. However, it’s important to note that these updates may not be included in the first stable build of Android 15, with users likely needing to wait until December for the rollout of the inaugural Feature Drop.
The revamped design introduces a more intuitive method for navigating between lock screen and home screen customization, allowing users to swipe rather than tap on tabs. In terms of lock screen clock customization, all available styles are now conveniently located within a bottom sheet, replacing the previous left-right swipe carousel. This new layout also incorporates options for adjusting the color and size of the lock screen clock, streamlining access to various settings.
Moreover, the customization section for UI color accents has been enhanced, featuring two rows of options instead of the previous single row. This adjustment, coupled with an improved zoom-in effect, enriches the display of color palettes and light/dark mode previews. For those interested in visual comparisons, a video detailing the differences between the current and new designs of the Pixel Wallpaper app is available for viewing.
