Google has updated the Pixel battery widget that it introduced last March by including the expected time remaining until the battery on compatible devices dies.
. The widget shows an icon and the name of the device whose battery is being tracked by the widget, and a light blue shading indicating the percentage life remaining for the battery which also appeared on the widget at the very end in numerical form. Besides your Pixel, the widget tracks the battery life of your left Pixel Bud, right Pixel Bud, and the wearable's carrying case.
We'd expect the widget to also track the battery life of the Google Pixel Watch when it is released later this month. It already shows the battery life of smartwatches that run Wear OS. According to, the latest update to the Pixel battery widget adds another feature in Settings Services v1.1.0.476812811.sr. With the new feature, the widget will not only show you the percentage of battery life remaining but it will also show you how much time your device has before the battery conks out.
So far, this feature hasn't appeared in the stable version of Android 13 but has surfaced in the Android 13 QPR1 Beta which means that those of you on the stable path might have to wait for the December Pixel Feature Drop to get the updated version of the battery widget. You can join the beta by going toand tapping on the box that says"View your eligible devices." From there, you will see an image of your Pixel device with a box that says"Opt in.
