How to Get Pixel 2’s “At a Glance” Widget on Any Android Device

As far as I was concerned, it was a small but ingenious idea from Google to show your upcoming calendar events just right on top of the time and weather. I hated the fact that Google made that feature a Pixel exclusive, and we even wrote an entire article on how you can get Pixel 2 features on any Android device.

Thankfully, now that Google has made the “At a Glance” widget available for all Android devices running Android Nougat and above, here is how you can get it on your device:
