Pixel Launcher gets new Apps list settings with Android 15 DP2

Google has recently pushed Android 15 Developer Preview 2 to Pixel devices. The update comes with new features and enhancements. Notably, Android 15 DP2 brings a new Apps list settings section to Pixel Launcher.

Android 15 DP2 introduces a new section to Pixel Launcher – Apps list settings. The new section currently consists of the Swipe up to start search feature, with more that could be brought with future releases.

Notably, Pixel Launcher already has the Swipe up to start search feature. Meanwhile, the DP2 build has aligned it into a dedicated section, which comprises Apps list (drawer) settings.

When enabled, the Google Search function aligned at the top of the Apps list will allow you to input text from the keyboard. If disabled, you need to press the search bar to open the keyboard for text entry and search.

Well, I keep the Swipe up to start search feature disabled as I doesn’t find it appropriate for me.
