Google starts rolling out a new Material You-inspired time picker UI in some of its Android apps. With the launch of Android 12, Google unveiled the latest update of its Material Design language, they have already started to update their apps to follow the new design language. They have even started adding new elements to some of the apps.
Multiple reports confirm that the new time picker UI features a more touch-friendly design. It offers better spacing for hours and minutes fields and even the AM/PM buttons have more distinct borders around them. Upon entering the time manually, the new UI makes better use of the available space. Instead of a large “Set time” header, the time fields now take up most of the space. The AM/PM dropdown has also been replaced with more distinct buttons.
Furthermore, the updated time picker UI has been started rolling out to several Google apps over the last few weeks. It is also available in Google Search when setting Assistant Reminders, and even in the Google Keep app. The updated Google Calendar, Tasks, and Clock apps could also start receiving the updates and they could also be rolled out very soon.
With the official stable release later this year, we expect more and more apps to adapt to this change and also use it.
