Google Account settings on the web gets M3 Expressive redesign

Following the Android version in June, the Google Account page on the web has been redesigned and simplified with Material 3 Expressive elements.

The background of myaccount.google.com changes from white to a very light gray with a blue tint. “Google” in the top-left corner drops the four-color logo to match “Account.”

Several more sections have been introduced with each one accompanied by a colorful icon and pill-shaped highlight when selected in the side bar.

The Home page prominently displays your avatar and name like before, but now has your email address. The “Search Google Account” bar remains and is joined by common actions: My password, Devices, Password Manager, My Activity, and Email. Other cards have been removed for a simpler layout that evokes the Search homepage.

The individual pages make use of Material 3 Expressive containers (with a white background) to better group information. Everything is now in one column that’s narrower than before. 

Password Manager links to the existing passwords.google.com with no redesign, while “Your devices” is broken out. Family Group is new, but Google One storage directs you to one.google.com.

This redesign matches the Android version (Tap “Manage your Google Account” in any profile menu) and will be familiar to phone users. Overall, it’s a good modernization for a key settings page.

Thanks all
