Google Messages for Android gets a new look

Old vs. new look (Image: 9to5Google)

Google Messages for Android received a subtle but noticeable update: a bolder send button. Before this, the paper airplane icon blended into the conversation's background. Now, it pops against it in a contrasting colour, so it's easier to spot and tap.

The background colour matches your Dynamic Colour theme or one of eight Custom Bubble options. The paper airplane icon will be light or dark, depending on the background colour, ensuring you see it. This change is rolling out to Google Messages beta users (version 20240813_00_RC00). It's a minimal but welcome improvement to make sending messages more intuitive.
