TL;DR

  • Google is preparing three new SpongeBob SquarePants theme packs for Pixel devices: I’m Ready!, Best Suds, and Fan‑Sea.
  • Each pack includes three wallpapers, custom icons, system sounds, and themed GIFs.
  • Code suggests these themes will expire on May 1 2026, continuing Google’s trend of using time‑limited promotional themes.

Background

As part of the November 2025 Pixel Feature Drop, Google rolled out Pixel Theme packs. The first pack, from Wicked, let users personalize their Pixel phones with coordinated wallpapers, icons, system sounds, and GIFs applied with a single tap. The Wicked themes were retired at the end of January (source), but Google is already working on new packs for the future. This article focuses on the upcoming SpongeBob‑themed packs.

Upcoming SpongeBob Theme Packs

With the latest Pixel Theme app (v1.0.868407176), Google has added three SpongeBob themes. Each theme contains three wallpapers, custom sounds, icons, and a collection of GIFs.
