Google retired the existing Weather app for Pixel Watch models last year in favor of the Pixel Weather app . Since then, the app has allowed Pixel Watch owners to choose from up to three watch face complications: Sunrise and sunset, UV Index, and Weather. Now, a new Pixel Weather update for Wear OS is adding three more complications to the list.

Google is rolling out dedicated complications for Air quality index, Pollen, and Precipitation as part of the version 1.0.0.94 update of the Pixel Weather app. For the uninitiated, complications on smartwatches are like widgets that offer information in real time on the watch face. Common complications on the Pixel Watch include battery level, a step counter, and upcoming calendar appointments.

While the three new complications don’t appear to be widely available yet, Telegram user @ItsJustJoshDev shared a screenshot from the Pixel Watch companion app with us, along with an image showing the newly added Air quality index complication on the watch face.

In addition to adding these complications from the Pixel Watch companion app, users can also long-press the watch face to modify or add new complications.

While these are undoubtedly handy upgrades for the Pixel Watch weather experience, we wonder why these complications weren’t available when the new app was first rolled out for Pixel Watch models last year.

Moreover, Wear OS has a library of third-party apps to choose from, with a few weather apps already offering some variation of these newly added complications. But as the saying goes, it’s better late than never.
