Instead of always truncating app names, Android 15 could introduce a new toggle to “show long app names” in the Pixel Launcher.

      If only they could add swipe down to search… This is the only reason I always use third party launchers.

        You can do that in lawnchair actually, but isn’t it annoying to have to reach for the top of your phone to open the notifications?
