Googlehas been making lots of updates to its Workspace interface and apps, and the latest bunch of upgrades are coming to tablets. They’re part of Google’s move to implement Material Design 3-compliant design improvements across all its work apps, and in addition to making your tablet experience look better it should help you get things done more efficiently too.
Writing on the official Google blog, the firm explains that the new formatting sidebar “reduces the number of taps needed to navigate to formatting options, enabling you to more easily arrange text, tables, images and more.”
Material Design is Google’s design language for apps, and it’s also known asMaterial You. For the last 10 years or so it’s set the rules for what Google recommends in user interface design, and as you’d expect Material Design 3 is the third major version of it. It’s all about creating app designs that are clear, user-friendly and that work across all screen sizes – including the tablets thatAndroidtended to forget about until relatively recently. This third version was announced in 2021 and informs the design of Android 12 and later.
When can I get the new Google Workspace update?
If you’re on a rapid release domain you can get it right now; otherwise you should get the update in early March when it rolls out to all Google Workspace customers, individual Google Workspace subscribers, and personal Google account users too.
