We’ve uncovered a new lock screen customization page for Pixel owners in the Wallpaper & Style app. The page is mostly blank right now but includes buttons for tweaking wallpapers, colors, the clock, widgets, and “media. ” It’s unclear if this UI change will be better than the current lock screen customization menu.
