- Google is testing out a new effect for the Translate button in Google Lens.
- The Translate button has a bluish-purple ring that will pulsate when there’s text to translate.
- The change appears in the latest beta of the Google app.
Google often likes to tinker with the UI of its products. So you may occasionally see something like a button moved to a different location, a new tab in a Google app, and so on. However, these tweaks don’t usually go against the company’s design language, which is what makes one of Google’s latest changes a bit of a surprise.
Spotted by 9to5Google, the tech giant’s latest UI tweak involves the Translate button in Google Lens. Normally, this button appears above the sheet in a solid Material You color. In the latest Google app beta (version 16.6), however, this button has been given an interesting effect.
