The current weather widgets available in the Google app are a 3×2 widget displaying the current weather and a 4×2 widget showing the hourly forecast. Both are resizable, but their content and shape change as you adjust them.
The three new widgets uncovered in the beta version include:
- A square 2×2 widget
- A 4×2 widget with a day-at-a-glance hourly forecast
- An expanded 4×3 widget incorporating a forecast for the next few days

It’s also worth noting that APK teardowns are not always a reliable indicator of future features. Sometimes, features discovered in this way never make it to the final release. Therefore, it’s essential to temper expectations and wait for an official announcement from Google before getting too excited about these new widgets.
The discovery of these three new weather widgets in the Google app beta is an interesting development for Android users. While their release is not guaranteed, it indicates that Google is exploring ways to provide more comprehensive and convenient weather information to its users. It will be interesting to see if and when these widgets make their way to the public release of the Google app.
