I know it's silly but I really like that frog.

This morning he got replaced by a screen that you don't have to swipe up to view, and includes both hourly and 10 day forecasts.

I followed some instructions I found elsewhere to clear google search data (settings: apps: google app: storage & cache: Manage space) and that brought the frog back for about 10 minutes. Then the weather line disappeared entirely from At A Glance. I rebooted the phone and got the weather back in the widget, but the frog was gone again.

Would really like him back... is there something else I can try.

ETA 5 days later my froggy friend is back... I hadn't tried changing anything else, it seems just random

The frog is still there for me.

And my wife, we have the pixel 6 and 7a.

I'm not in that rollout yet, still got the frog.

Can you drop some screenshots of the version you have?

[–] dirthawker0 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Looking closer, technically the frog is there but the picture used to be a full screen size and now he's very small. ETA just for the record I have a Pixel 4a so I'm on 13 and supposedly no longer get system updates.

Interesting. Is more information hidden behind clicks in this screen? I'm missing a lot of detail in the screen, like humidity, wind speed and UV index.

Regarding system updates, I don't think that matters. The weather screen is bundled in the Google-app afaik, which you will continue to get updates for until the app itself breaks compatibility with your OS, which is unlikely to happen this decade, probably.

Wind speed, humidity, hourly precipitation etc are below the 10 day forecast. Just have to scroll up. It would be nice to be able to rearrange the panels according to what you look at the most but they don't.

It's showing up for me but it's a week behind and throws an error message when I try to refresh. I'm using a pixel 7.

[–] atrielienz 2 points 1 year ago

It fixed itself this morning. I am able to see the current weather and the 10 day weather with no weird errors or glitches.
