  • Google Contacts could soon get a UI revamp that removes the hamburger icon in favor of new chips.
  • The app could also get a widget that lets you see recent messages of a chosen contact.

Google Contacts is one of those Google apps that we don’t talk about as much. But in its case, that is a good thing because the app just works and gets out of the way without any fluff. We don’t hear about new features getting added to the Google Contacts app, so it’s time to take note when something new comes. Google Contacts could soon get a slight UI revamp to remove the hamburger menu and a widget showing recent messages.

According to TheSpAndroid, Google Contacts v4.26 contains these new features currently inaccessible to users. With the help of some feature flags, one can surface them.
