  • The Pixel Recorder app has received a visual overhaul in line with Google’s Material 3 Expressive style.
  • Expect changes like a larger play button, more prominent toggles, and larger waveforms.
  • The app also takes a step back by moving some useful shortcut icons into the three-dot menu.

The Recorder app is one of my favorite Pixel phone features, owing to its on-device transcriptions, cloud backup functionality, and web-based access. Over the years, the app has also gained features like speaker labels and summarization capabilities. Now, it’s receiving a fresh coat of Material 3 Expressive paint.

The latest version of the Recorder app on the Play Store (h/t: 9to5Google) has just received a visual overhaul with some Material 3 Expressive stylings. We can confirm receiving this redesign in version 4.2.20250529.793975458. Check out the screenshots below.
