Chrome for Android gets Material 3 Expressive Settings
9to5Google • • technology
Key Points:
- Google is updating Chrome for Android with a Material 3 Expressive redesign of the Settings page, featuring individual cards for each line separated by padding and lighter background containers.
- The new design improves readability by adding gaps between sections and using more pronounced corners on the first and last cards of each section.
- Menus also adopt this card-based style, though toggle switches remain smaller than typical Android settings, maintaining consistency with Chrome's previous design choices.
- The redesign is rolling out via a server-side update with Chrome version 146, and users can force stop the app to trigger the update if it hasn't appeared yet.
- This update complements earlier Material 3 Expressive changes made last fall to Chrome’s address bar, overflow menu, and Tab Grid interface.
