Google Pixel smartphones are known for their Pixel Launcher, the default home screen experience that embodies Google’s vision for Android. However, one longstanding issue has been the truncation of app names in the app drawer, causing frustration for users who prefer to see the complete name. Fortunately, a solution appears to be on the way.

Currently, the Pixel Launcher shortens app names if they are too long to fit neatly on the screen. This limitation can lead to app names like “Play Store” being cut off as “Play Sto…,” which can be bothersome for some users. But there’s good news on the horizon.

According to a report by Android expert Mishaal Rahman (via Android Authority), an upcoming change in Android 15 will introduce a two-line app label solution for those who want to see full app names. While other launchers like Moto G’s myUX and Samsung’s One UI have already implemented this feature, Pixel users may soon benefit from it as well.

This new feature was discovered while exploring the code of the latest Android 15 Beta, revealing a hidden toggle in the Pixel Launcher settings: “show long app names.” When activated, this toggle will display app names across two lines in search results and the app drawer, making them easier to read at a glance.

Although seemingly minor, this change will be greatly appreciated by Pixel users who have long been frustrated by truncated app names. With this update, users can quickly identify the apps they’re looking for without any confusion or abbreviation. Not only does it save time and effort, but it also enhances the overall visual appeal of the home screen and search results.

Stay tuned for more updates as Google continues to refine its user experience with upcoming Android releases!
