New Pixel Watch faces update replaces Assistant complication

Google is updating the app responsible for Pixel Watch Faces. Thus yet, no big changes have occurred, with the count remaining at 19, but the Google Assistant complication has received a color change.

You may launch Google Assistant by setting its complication on your watch face instead of holding the side button or using the hot word. The complication’s icon has been the blue/red/green/yellow logo since its inception.

The Assistant symbol now matches the watch face color when using version 1.1.69.494644191 of the Google Pixel Watch Faces app (vs 1.0.87.473139107). This is nice for consistency, but you can revert to the previous version by giving an app shortcut to the Google Assistant app, however, you’ll have to live with the white backdrop.

Meanwhile, this update skews the Pixel Watch companion app sample with missing complication spaces. When you go to edit, you’ll notice that they’re empty. This is a strange glitch that alters the appearance of some faces.

This Google Pixel Watch Faces update is now available through the on-watch Play Store. Please let us know if you notice any other changes.
