Pixel Watch updates its ‘always on’ display for media controls and timers

Google’s Pixel watches are introducing an improved always-on display.

Tech site 9to5Google noticed that with Wear OS 6, the Pixel Watch has added media controls (such as controlling your music) as well as always-on capabilities for the Timer app. Earlier, these types of devices would fade after a certain period of time. Now, they remain on the screen, with the display slightly changed from its previous version.

This could be a big improvement for people who use their watch to time workouts or track what they’re cooking. Mashable named the Google Pixel Watch 4 the best Android smartwatch of 2025 — so this is an improvement on an already good product. Tech editor Timothy Beck Worth wrote, “It was cute enough to wear to the office, but comfortable and smart enough to keep track of workouts.” Meanwhile, senior journalist Christiana Silva wrote in her review that “The Pixel Watch 4 is a true runner’s watch, and it’s gorgeous, too.”
