But, we must mention that in the Google announcement, the company didn’t mention when users will be able to test and customize their new Material 3 Expressive design. We know for sure that the Android 16 beta version will be available later this month, so most probably, the new design language will come at the same time as this operating system update.
So, from the Google announcement, we can see how different elements of the new Google design language are, such as notifications, status bar, and always-on-display features. These are getting a new vibrant or colorful look, with bouncy animations, and colorful shades that make the user experience more enjoyable.
We must admit that it looks very cool and indeed different compared with the other operating systems in the market.
The quick settings feature will also get a redesign, in which users will be able to resize and even rearrange the components according to their needs.
You should know that as an Android owner, you are free to customize your phone to look like your personality, with new icon shapes and type styles along with color pallets, to make your smartphone truly yours. The animations also have a new look; they are more bouncy and seem to have a significant impact on the navigation experience. Even more so, for the notifications system, the animations will provide subtle feedback when they are dismissed.
Besides the Android 16 new design language that will be available soon on people’s Pixel smartphones, Google has introduced a redesign for the watches' round display. Maintaining the same vibe, with dynamic animations, vibrant color pallets, and attractive icons, the WearOS 6 will make the wearing experience better. The entire WearOS system has received a redesign, so users are free to choose from the color palettes and themes to customize their watch for daily activities.
Google is aiming to make apps and watch information more accessible, with animations that perfectly fit the smartwatches’ screens and buttons that can be easily tapped.
Also, in the Google announcement, the company declared that the WearOS 6 update will not only offer a whole new design language but will also provide increased performance and 10% more battery life.
The Google giants state that more design improvements are about to come, so stay tuned to be the first to find out more about the most recent Android design language improvements!
