After going full-width last month, a smaller redesign to Google Discover emphasizes the site/publisher name on Android and iOS.
There’s now a bar above the cover image that notes the site name and logo, which is a larger circle. This is also the case with YouTube channels and other card categories. Since that no longer appears in the bottom-right, the publish time moves to that corner. The heart and overflow menu are unchanged on the other side.
The compact card layout puts the headline at the left and square image to the right.
Old vs. new
When scrolling the feed, the publisher name now stands out a great deal with all the changes. It’s helpful when skimming the Discover feed for something to read.
We’re seeing this Discover site name change with the stable and beta Google app on Android, as well as the Google Search app for iOS, over the past few days.
