I have had the same issue with weather coming and going at random with Nova launcher. I mentioned it in the Nova launcher for Google + but did not get any feedback on a fix. Would love a fix if anyone has one. Nova launcher is my go to launcher but in the Nova Google + all they said was to use a weather app and widget. I have other weather apps but don't need another app for something that Google already provides and works perfect for what I need.

For me works without problem, in AOD show weather. I'm use nova prime

Not liking the new Google app circular icons.................

Anyone else not a big fan of the boring circular google icons on the Pixel?
How can I go back to the Marshmallow icons instead? I've searched the GPS and just find icons that you have to use with specific launchers. I don't want to change the stock Pixel launcher as I've grown to like it. Used to be a die hard Nova prime user on my Nexus 6.
Any recommendations for just swapping out the Google application icons to Marshmallow?

Does that include the Google Now cards by swiping left at the last screen on the left?

Just tried it - it not quite the same thing. Thanks for the suggestion though. I'll have to figure out a different way to replace the ugly icons.

Pixel Launcher Blurry background

Yesterday I installed Pixel Launcher on my OP3.
I'm running Freedom OS 3.5.5, Stock kernel, root & xposed.
Whenever I make a New tab next to my homescreen my homescreen turns blurry, restarting doesn't fix it Unfortunately.

Change your wallpaper
The blurry wallpaper is due to the stock launcher, that blurs the left page to the assistant and the effects remain in the rest of launchers (I was about 1 month to realise of it lol), my solution was to apply the wallpaper from the wallpaper chooser of the app (in my case the nova launcher), hope it helps you to solve the problem!!

(question) Nova Launcher At a Glance Widget

Hey guys,
Does anyone know how to get the new Pixel XL 2 at a glance widget on Nova Launcher? I have no idea if it's supported or I have to wait for an update or something, just haven't seen anything on it. I tried installing Nova Launcher and it's not there.

I could've sworn I saw a setting for this in the Display settings but I'd have to go back and look. Have you tried enabling this while using Nova as the primary launcher? It may not be possible and requires you using the Pixel Launder and Nova will need to add that feature.

Of course I do just not with Nova launcher enabled
Zooper widgets + Trident 3 pack can give you that.

Hi, I just made the At A Glance widget for KWGT app. It's free and should work on any device/launcher. It isn't really tested it on any other device than mine, so I'd be glad if anyone tried it out. See the thread I just started: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/themes/kwgt-glance-kwgt-t3694513
I believe this should give you what you are looking for. Updated regularly.
The existing version of Google app has a beta widget for "At a glance".
Nice. Don't think I've seen or heard about this.

@EeZeEpEe: It was rather low key news, but it was mentioned on the XDA portal, along with a download link to the beta Google app that housed it. It graduated and now is in the release version. It makes me happy too: not only is it one less app I have to install (Another Widget), but Another Widget has issues displaying weather correctly.
Yeah another widget did okay but I noticed the weather was off too. Would say one temperature and tapping it I would get a different one.

Sorry to ressurect an old thread but did anyone find out how to change the options for the at a glance widget?
The widget is available in 3rd party launchers but I can't for the life of me find any way to adjust what it shows.
Any help greatfully appreciated

Pixel 2 Launcher

Hi all, so my biggest bug bear with the Honor/Huawei devices is the launcher. In my opinion it looks outdated and a launcher.
I've been having some issues getting any third party launchers on the device but I've now found a modded Pixel launcher that work - link below.
Once you've installed it and before you set as your default launcher, ensure you go into the app permissions within the app and set all of them on. Then set as your see default and bingo, you've got Pixel launcher.
Enjoy, Paul.
On a side note Honor/ Huawei, please update your launcher. It's poor and looks so dated.

Action Launcher is actually a pretty decent replacement. My issue is sliding up to get to the recently used apps on this device.

Driving mode with Nova Launcher

Hi, I've got a pixel 6 pro, quite like the stock launcher but I'm a fan of Nova Launcher. I would swap, but I use Google's driving mode every day, and I can't find a way to use it with Nova. Does anyone know if it's possible?
Hello, look at my signature I have very good one, you must see it, tell if this satifies you !!!!
Yes . I too wish there was DRIVING MODE with totally different layout and customizable APPS ALONE. It makes using launcher very difficult while driving..
