- In addition to other areas of the Google Messages app, Google is testing Material 3 Expressive design changes for the profile section.
- The profile section will soon feature updated buttons that change shape and include tap animations.
Android 16 is here, but most of its Material 3 Expressive changes will be coming with the Android 16 QPR1 release later in the year. However, that doesn’t stop apps from updating themselves with Material 3 Expressive elements to prepare for the impending design language change. Google has been slowly rolling out the Material 3 Expressive redesign for Google Messages to users in the beta channel, and we’ve now spotted one more area that will soon get a touch of Material 3 Expressive.
