Similar to the Pixel Smartphones, the C tablets have the same navigation type buttons as well as the rounded app icons. Previously there was an app drawer that used to show at the bottom of the tablet screen is dropped out of the Pixel C tablets after the latest android 7.1.2 update.
From now onwards, you need to swipe upwards to see the installed software.
