Google Messages tweaks the camera to show more of your gallery
9to5Google••technology
Key Points:
- Google Messages is rolling out updates to the combined camera and gallery interface on Android, making the camera viewfinder slightly shorter but extending it into the system status bar.
- The updated interface features a container with rounded corners at the top and bottom, while the button layout remains unchanged.
- The reduced size and spacing allow users to view two full rows (2×3) of images in the gallery, an improvement from previously seeing only half of the second row.
- Users can still swipe through their full gallery or access it directly via the "Gallery" shortcut in the ‘plus’ menu, bypassing the camera entirely.
- This update, initially tested in the beta channel, is now available on the stable channel with Google Messages version
