Google rolls out Pixel Weather pollen tracker in the US

The Pixel Weather’s pollen tracker card is now seeing wider availability in the US. This rollout started over the past few days.

“Pollen” takes the shape of a wide, pill-shaped card — joining the circle, square, and rectangular designs — with three glanceable dials. In the US, you’ll get Grass, Tree, and Weed information with a 0-4 score: None, Low (green), Medium (yellow), High (orange), and Severe (red).

Tapping provides a five-day forecast, with Grass always opening first regardless of what gauge you hit. Google notes seasonality and cross reaction.

By default, Pollen appears as the last card in the city view. You can of course drag it higher up the screen.

This US availability joins the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, and Japan in recent months. Make sure Pixel Weather is up-to-date (version 1.0.20250315.x) and force stop the app if you’re not seeing the pollen tracker yet.

Other recent updates introduced the date to the 10-day forecast card, and lets you search for cities without automatically adding them.
