Google rolls out the Android 17 QPR2 Beta 3 update to eligible Pixel devices, adding new customization features alongside bug fixes. The main change lets users edit the layout of the Quick Settings shade.
According to reports, the update introduces a Quick Settings layout editor that allows rearranging existing toggles and setting tiles. Users can choose which quick toggles appear and adjust the sizing of tiles, including making certain toggles larger. The editor also supports moving elements such as the brightness slider and the media player within the Quick Settings panel.
One outlet notes that the capability appears to have been introduced in an earlier Android Canary build, suggesting a relatively short development and testing cycle before reaching the QPR2 Beta 3 release. Overall, both sources frame the update as an expansion of Quick Settings theming and layout control on Pixel devices running Android 17.
