- There are six new Material You-inspired Google Photos widgets to add to your home screen.
- Android 12 is not required, but Google Photos version 5.65 is.
- The blob widget is the best.
Android 12 has been available on recent Google Pixel phones for a few weeks. However, if you don’t own a recent Pixel device, there’s a good chance you haven’t experienced the wonders of Android 12, or the all-new look and feel Google is calling Material You. However, with a recent Google Photos update, you can inject a little Material You goodness to your homescreen.
Once your phone receives the update to Google Photos version 5.65 (check here), you’ll have six new widget shapes to add to your homescreen.
