GoKawiilGoogle details data access and editing for Pixel's Create My Widget
Google published a support page explaining how Create My Widget, the AI-powered tool rolling out to Pixel 10 and Pixel 11 (excluding the 10a) in the November Pixel Drop, works beyond initial widget creation. Widgets can display personal data if users connect Google Workspace during setup, with permissions managed through Connected Apps and explicit allow prompts for device or app data. Existing widgets can be modified by long-pressing, selecting Edit, describing changes, and sending the update rather than recreating them.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Tying AI widget generation to Workspace data access raises the stakes on permission management, since users must actively grant access for personalized content to appear. The feature's uneven rollout, with UK users missing Gemini Connected Apps integration, suggests regional regulatory or product differences could shape how AI features reach markets going forward.
- Create My Widget can show personal data only if users connect Google Workspace and grant permissions.
- Widgets can be edited in place via long-press rather than recreated from scratch.
- The feature is limited to five countries, with the UK missing Gemini Connected Apps support.
