Google Busy, busy, has been busy giving his Android apps Material 3 to express makeup. I have to say, for most parts, these makeups are well performed. The changes in the UIS of these apps have made them easier to use, more useful, and in many cases, the dynamic color feature brings the central color theme from your phone’s wallpaper that improves the app shape. The Google Contacts app is now getting a change. The update is now underway through the Google Play Store.

The new shape is a lower bar in the app, which is small, though three tabs, contacts, highlights, and organized, are the same. Pressing any of the three tabs shows a great improvement of the UI as it is now easy to see every name round container, making it easier to see what name you are clicking. Earlier, there was no clear separation between the names of the contacts.
Each individual contacts also get a large avatar and the name of the lower contact. There are four options below the direct contact name:
The major change in this card with the change is that the names of these four actions are now placed inside the tablet -shaped field. Earlier, four steps were placed within a simple circle. The new format is found on Google Contacts app version 4.6.1.x.
To see which version of the app is running on your Android phone, tap Settings > Apps > View all XXX apps. Scroll down on contacts and tap it to view the Google Connector app Information Page. Scroll down the page to view the app version of the app installed on your device. My Pixel 6 Pro Running Android 16 Qpr1 Beta 3.1 is a fresh version of the contact app.

Material 3 H3 express refresh for Google contacts may not be the most rotated. Nor is the contact app the most used app on your handset. Nevertheless, keeping them all in mind, Google still worked hard on this change. It is a great improvement for users to make the contact app more useful and easier for users.
