How can I get Weather widget on Lock Screen? I have been trying add weather updates directly on my lock screen on Android. I heard there’s some widget thing you can use but I’m not sure how to set it up or even where to find it. Is it something I need to download or is it already there on my phone?

Not sure if it's what you are looking for but I know there is a stock clock style that includes a very barebones weather report. Though, I wasn't able to get it to work consistently. This was on a pixel 7.

I don't think you can get widgets on the usual Android lockscreen anymore. What I used to do was make the weather app have a persistent notification, and have that notification showing on the lockscreen.
