Android 16 QPR3 beta finally lets you hide 'At a Glance'

Technology Dec 18, 2025

Android 16 QPR3 Beta 1 now gives users an easy way to turn off the "At a Glance" widget on their home screen—just long-press and toggle it in settings.
The feature started rolling out on December 18, 2025, though not everyone has it yet.

Why this matters

Before this update, hiding "At a Glance" on the home screen required clunky workarounds.
Now, you can clear up your home screen without sacrificing weather updates on your lock or always-on display—a small change that makes customizing your Pixel feel a lot smoother.

What else is new?

This beta also brings some subtle interface tweaks as part of Google's ongoing effort to make Android friendlier.
The stable version is expected in March 2026, likely alongside the next Pixel Feature Drop.
