TL;DR
- Google is bringing theme packs to Pixel phones with a new app in the Google Play Store, available now.
- While users can download the Theme packs app today, the features will require another system or server-side update from Google.
- The first seasonal theme pack release includes three themes based on the Wicked: For Good movie.
Pixel phones might be getting theme packs and prioritized notifications in a future Pixel Drop, and Google is releasing a new app ahead of time. Theme packs were already in the works as of early October, when Android Authority managed to surface a new “Themes” entry in the Settings app on Google Pixel phones. Now, Google published a new “Theme packs” app on the Google Play Store, exclusively for Pixels.
Theme packs will make it possible to “personalize your Pixel in one tap,” according to the Play Store listing. “Instantly unlock a complete refresh that updates your wallpaper, icons, sounds, GIFs, and more with seasonal theme packs.”
