The Google app could soon get a more organized settings page

Android Authority • October 6, 2026 • technology

Key Points:

Google is developing a redesigned settings page for the Google app, shifting from a list layout to a card-based design that groups related settings into labeled categories like “Your App Experience” and “Privacy & Safety.”
The new design aligns with Google’s Material 3 Expressive design language and aims to improve usability by bringing frequently used settings such as “Search personalization,” “SafeSearch,” and “Results about you” to the main settings screen.
This redesign differs from a similar update spotted in the Gemini app, indicating Google may be experimenting with multiple design approaches rather than unifying its settings UI across apps.
The updated settings page has not yet been released, and there is no announced timeline for its rollout; features identified through APK teardown may not necessarily appear in the final public version.
