According to the most recent 9to5Google "APK Insight" article, owners of Google Pixels and Nest devices may experience a useful integration. The new At a Glance feature will offer "Cross Device Timer" and "Timer info from your home devices," according to code found in the most recent beta version of the Google app, 13.26.





The Pixel launcher includes a contextual feature called "At a Glance" that shows information throughout the day such as the weather, events, timers, and reminders.


It's convenient to be able to monitor timers you set with home speakers from your phone because it eliminates the need to repeatedly ask your home speaker "how much time is left on timer?" The timer information may be displayed to any Pixel device connected to the same Wi-Fi network as the home speaker, but it is unclear whether this integration will only work with devices on Google accounts.

We posit that timers could be turned off from a Pixel device, but we have no idea what that would entail or how it would function visually. In either case, this setting will be indicated by the next system icon.

Sadly, the staff at 9to5Google was unable to make the feature operate as intended. There is no guarantee that this feature will launch because Google hasn't confirmed it yet.
