Google is rolling out a small update to the Clock app — version 7.14 — on Android that makes a pair of visual tweaks. It follows the last release in April.
Update 6/25: Google Clock 7.14 is now widely rolling out via the Play Store. All users will notice the updated M3 toggles, while Pixel owners get the new icon style for weather conditions that will match At a Glance in the upcoming Android 16 QPR1 redesign.
With this update, the Timer Starter widget remains exclusive to Pixel and is not available on third-party Android phones.
Original 6/18: Throughout the app, Google Clock 7.14 uses the latest Material 3 switches. These on/off toggles have the same general shape, but are slightly taller and narrower. The off state features bolder outlines and a less prominent circular handle. (Developers have the optional ability to add checkmark or ‘x’ icons inside the circle, like Google Wallet settings.)
In the Clock app, you’ll find these updated switches in the Alarm tab and Settings list.
These components are a few years old (2022) at this point, but adoption in first-party apps has been slow. With Material 3 Expressive, Google did not update this component.
Old vs. new
Meanwhile, the (world) Clock tab features an updated weather condition icon set. Instead of being traditionally colored (like a yellow sun), everything is now gray. It’s a more subtle look that can be less distracting, though it doesn’t stand out as much compared to before when you are quickly skimming the list.
Google Clock 7.14 is slowly rolling out via the Play Store and not yet widely available.
