Google Launches Contacts 3.0 - Unfolds New Material Theme UI

by Nayra Singh Education consultant

Google unveiled a new update to its Contacts app with major changes in UI and minor ones in the functionality. The new Contacts 3.0 app suggests that the Material Design, launched by the Google itself in 2014 is on the verge to slowly being replaced by the new and ‘seemingly’ better Material Theme.

On a plus note, it can be presumed that this action of Google might inspire other developers on the Play Store to kick off new versions of their apps with null or minor changes in the features and significant ones in the design. Tech giants are gradually getting highly focused on providing an enhanced user experience to their clientele.

Google Contacts 3.0: Core Features and Changes

As appears in the picture, the UI of the Contacts app i.e. contacts 2.0 was rather old-fashioned and didn’t align well with Google’s new ‘mostly-white’ UIs. On the other hand, Google Contacts 3.0 flaunts a lot more white on it. The ‘plus’ sign, user profile page, and the suggestions tab, all are now brighter. Take a look at the new Google Contacts app.

Apart from the design, the features have not been touched as appears from the first glimpse. However, one thing is for sure that Google is finally striving to provide a consistent and similar user experience across all its platforms and services. And, that’s good for maintaining a USP and a brand value.
