The app grid on your phone’s home screen normally ranges for a 4×4, 5×5, or 6×6 grid (or some similar combination).

We assume this is limited to just Pixel phones, but hopefully, other phone-makers adopt it, as it’s a huge accessibility feature for those who need larger app icons.
How to switch to the new app layout?
Switch to the new 2×2 layout with a long-press on your home screen, then select Styles & Wallpapers> Grid > 2×2.
As Google continues to update the public beta and we get closer to the official launch later this year, more features will be added and more features will be uncovered.
Until then, make sure to check out our previous posts on Android 12 features thus far. And if you’re ready to take the plunge.
