I got A15 a couple days ago on my Pixel 7pro and realized I can't add widgets on the stock Pixel launcher.
When I try to add a widget , a blank outline pops up in the upper left corner of the display but the widget isn't there.
I tried soft resetting and a factory reset.
No bueno.
Through trial and error I found that I am able to add a few third party app widgets, but none of the Google apps.
Very frustrating because I make use of a lot of widgets.

I found the widget I use, the Google Clock is not right. The size is tiny while the border is large. I'm kind of surprised because I figured all the beta testers would have found the widgets were buggy before the release.

I have the exact same problem since A15. I've asked for help in the official pixel support forum and in the pixel reddit but no response so far


 
I'm not a heavy widget user, but two of them I had for accessing routines broke. Before, each of them were basically 1x1 homescreen icons, shortcuts to trigger their respective routines, and I was able to interlay them among all my other homescreen app icons. After update, they were gone. I thought that was odd, but didn't worry and recreated them from within the modes and routines pages. However, it seems they now can't be created smaller than 2x1 landscape. Messes up how I had my homescreen.
