- Google is testing a redesigned Search widget on Android.
- The refreshed widget adds support for Dynamic Color, but it no longer offers logo and shape customizations.
- The widget design refresh is still in beta, so Google could make further changes before a wider rollout.
The Google Search widget on Android offers a few customization options that let you change the Google logo shown in the widget and adjust the search bar shape and transparency. Google even gives you granular hue and saturation adjustments to help you manually change the widget’s color. However, the widget currently doesn’t support Dynamic Color, which automatically matches the widget’s colors to your system theme. Google might soon address that with an upcoming redesign, but it might remove a few customization options.
9to5Google has spotted an upcoming Google Search widget redesign in the latest Google app beta update (version 15.30.x). The redesign replaces the hue and saturation adjustments with a new Device color theme that automatically adjusts the widget’s color per your device’s current theme.
