This updated guide examines How to Use the Style Menu on Pixel 4 and organizes the essential facts, background, and practical takeaways in clear American English.

Style Menu was only introduced on Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL. However, it is not only users who own these devices can use it. Smartphones from the second generation Pixel onwards also get access to the Style Menu right now.

Style Menu

You can easily find Style Menu on Pixel 4 or Pixel 4 XL smartphones. If you long press on the home screen, one of the options will be Styles & Wallpapers .

You will then be given the option to change the wallpaper for both the home screen and the lock screen. That's not something new, so why not skip it and hit Style at the bottom of the screen? Clicking Style will open the screen below.

The buttons you see at the top are predefined themes. You can apply them directly by selecting the theme and clicking Apply. You will see a preview, before you apply it.

However, you can build your own personal style theme with Style Menu.

How to use the Style Menu

Using the Style Menu is very simple (like installing a Dark Theme). You have a bunch of options to experiment with, like changing fonts, palettes, icon styles and even icon shapes. Combining icon shapes with background images will bring the most striking effect.

There are 4 fonts, 4 types of icon shapes, 4 styles and 8 different colors.

When you're done, just name your new style and apply it. Besides, if you change your mind about any element, you can always go back and edit it. Just press and modify anything you want.
