The latest beta for Google Messages includes changes to the chat conversation screen and the profile section.
The profile section sees many changes, with more elements using Material You.
The chat compose area also sees the repositioning of icons.
Even though Google has plenty of messaging apps, Google Messages stands out as a great, no-frills texting app for Android. The app has seen some renewed vigor in the past few weeks, with reports of new features and functionality consistently trickling out. Now, a new report highlights upcoming changes to the profile page and the chat bar within Google Messages.
Google has been working on a Profiles feature for a while now, and it is expected to push forward RCS-based messaging on the platform. Before the feature begins widely rolling out, Google appears to have spruced up the Profiles section, as per a report from TheSpAndroid investigating the latest Google Messages beta app for Android.
