I hope it comes to the pixel phones soon. Though I enjoy wunderground it would be nice if that weather widget was more helpful.

I just want my weather widget to not disappear randomly from the always on display and the home screen when I actually need to check the weather.
That's all I'm asking. How is this still a bug years later?
Now, those of us who don't have a Fold or the tablet have to wait and see when Google plans to bring it to other Pixel devices in the future. Also, I hope that frog is still there!
My real default weather app is a self hosted web app that scrapes government websites
Ok, but can we please have the ability to remove the current widget since it's pretty much useless? Same for the search bar that I only use when I tap it by mistake?
Use a different launcher
Sure I can do that in the meantime, doesn't mean it's not something Google should allow (especially the date/weather widget)
They won't.
If enough people complained about it by sending a feedback message they might.
What's the package name for the app?
