2nd beta for the 12L version if anyone is running it besides me. Get your January security patch.
At a glance widget is working correctly now, also the clock being misaligned on the lock screen is now normal.
Here's some more:

Is that going to be coming to the folding phones like the Z Fold and Z Flip? I know it's geared towards the folders, just wondering if it'll be a feature drop type of update, or something more substantial? The Z Fold 3 and Flip 3 are already running 12...

I don’t really have answers, but I remained on the beta program after 12 was broadly released and was prompted to download the 12L.
While it is mainly geared for foldables with larger screens from what I’ve read it works great on pixels as well. There are 4 betas coming in total. The first had some minor issues but the 2nd is really smooth. Anyone with a foldable or a pixel can download it from what I have read about it. There is some really good info on you tube showing the perks of the 12L version.
I’ve always been a sucker for trying new betas and 12L is no exception but it is running exceptionally well on my pixel 4A.
Having the choice of fixing the clock on the Lock Screen is priceless. Those who don’t like the stacked clock won’t need to wait for android 13.

Don't know if this is a bug in 12L or not but in the Atta glance widget you apparently cannot remove the weather. I thought in the 12 release that was doable. Reason I want to remove it is it's not accurate but the weather pill I can get from the widget page is accurate.
Interestingly, the at a glance widget weather is accurate on third-party launchers but not on the pixel launcher, weird.
