Google tests a newer Pixel Launcher Version with the Google Assistant icon On the search bar

in #mgsc6 years ago

The Pixel Launcher,The Pre-Installed Launcher app on the Google Pixel And **Android one **Devices, Doesn't receive very many updates Because it would be Annoying for users To have to relearn how to use their launcher app.The Launcher has undergone a few notable changes since its initial release, though. The release of the tall, 18:9 **Google Pixel 2 XL **prompted Google to move the Pixel Launcher’s search bar to the bottom. Next, Android P Developer Preview 2 integrated the recent apps screen with the launcher, resulting in seamless transitions between your installed and recent app lists. While we don’t know if Google plans on revamping the launcher yet again for the release of the Google Pixel 3, we do know that they’re at least testing changes to the search bar for the upcoming Pixel 3. Now, we have obtained an updated version of the Pixel Launcher that changes the standard microphone icon in the search bar To the Google Assistant icon.!Image_5923.pngImage_5854.png
As you can see in the screenshots shown above, the installed version of the app is 9-4889482. The latest version available online is 9-4836503, so the version that we have installed is newer than the one that’s currently available for the Google Pixel 2. This updated Pixel Launcher APK was discovered by XDA Senior Member paphonb, a member of the team behind the Lawnchair launcher and who is also notable for being one of the first to port the Google Pixel 2’s Launcher app to non-Pixel smartphones and older Android versions.!
