Google has hard coded the At a glance widget at the top left of the screen and doesn’t give any option to even move it to some other location, let alone remove it from the screen. At the very most, you could remove the weather information, but that’s just about it, the day and date section will be forever present there.
While it’s usually a great idea to have this information on your home screen, but many users already have the widget clock that does this job. So there’s no point in having two instances of the same information, on the flip side it only tends to make the home screen more cluttered. So in this guide, we will show you a nifty method to mitigate the issue of being unable to remove the date from the home screen on the Pixel Launcher. Follow along.
How to Remove Date from Home Screen on Pixel Launcher
The best way to mitigate this issue is to make your second screen the new home screen and transfer all the app icons, widgets, and shortcuts to your new home screen. While the At a Glance widget will still remain on the original home screen but that isn’t a cause of concern now because we wouldn’t be interacting with that screen from now on. As far as how you could assign a new home screen, well there’s nothing specific that you need to do. Just remain on that new screen and after every task, you will be taken back to this new home screen itself [since this will be your last interacted screen]. So on that note, we round off this guide on how you could remove the date from the home screen on the Pixel Launcher.
