Google is rolling out aPixel Weather appupdate that adds a pollen tracker for U.S. users, as reported by9to5Google. The tracker features intuitive charts that show daily pollen levels on a scale of 0 to 4. It also breaks down individual pollen levels for grasses, trees, and weeds.
The pollen tracker was first announced as part of theOctober 2024 Pixel Feature Drop, but was limited to users in the United Kingdom, Denmark, France, and Italy. It was subsequently added for users in Japan with theMarch 2025 Pixel Feature Drop, and is now appearing on Pixel phones in the U.S. following a server-side push.
By default, the pollen tracker will appear in a pill near the bottom of the Pixel Weather page for your location. The page can be customized, so it’s possible to move the pollen tracker higher up on the page for easy access.

Users are seeing the pollen tracker appear inversion 1.0.20250315of the Pixel Weather app, which was last updated April 10, again indicating that this is a server-side rollout.

The server-side rollout is not complete, so it may take some time for the pollen tracker to appear for U.S. cities on all Pixel devices. 9to5Google notes that users can preview the pollen tracker by adding a city in one of the previously-supported countries, like United Kingdom, Denmark, France, Japan, or Italy.
