Even though the Pixel Feature Drop is delayed for the Pixel 6 series, there is a workaround that will let you install the battery widget before receiving the feature drop.

, and the release of the March security update for the Pixel 3a through the 5a was the latest word about an eagerly-awaited feature rolling out for compatible Pixel models. As a Pixel 6 Pro owner myself, it is a widget that I used when I rocked the iPhone 11 Pro Max and was looking forward to using the Android version.

This particular widget is the"battery widget" and on iOS, this writer used it to keep track of the percentage of battery life remaining on the iPhone 11 Pro Max and an Apple Watch SE. The early design for an Android battery widget appeared in the first beta version of Android 12 and the design has changed since.

The Android 12 battery widget can appear on the Pixel 6 series if the phones are running the Android 12L betapoints out, Wear OS smartwatches will not show up on the widget because it reveals current battery life to the Wear OS app instead of reporting the data to Android. Hopefully, this will be something that Google can correct in the future.
