Trio of new weather widgets is in the forecast for Google
  • Google has built three new weather widgets for Android, hiding in a recent beta release.
  • The new widgets include a smaller space-saving option, as well as two with expanded hourly views.
  • Right now there’s no telling when or if any of these three will be going live.

Are you taking full advantage of all the useful widgets available from your apps? Android widgets can be a fantastic way to get the most useful information you need from apps at just a glance, and your favorite software probably offers a bunch of them you’ve never even looked at. While you owe it to yourself to do something about that, eagle-eyed widget fans should be spotting a handful of new additions soon, as Google prepares to introduce three weather widgets.

Google delivers its weather services through the company’s self-titled Android app, and while poking our nose around the new 15.28.37.29 beta release, we’ve manage to uncover work on three additional weather widgets, which we’ll likely see join the pair of existing options.
