TL;DR Google Docs may introduce three new filters for searching for documents: Type, People, and Modified.
The FAB is getting a Material 3 Expressive makeover.
The formatting option is moving from the top toolbar to the bottom.
Google Docs works perfectly fine as it is, but of course, there’s always room for improvement. To make the experience even better, Google is working on a bunch of UI changes that should prove helpful when they eventually roll out.
In total, we found that Google Docs is in store for three big UI changes. These alterations were discovered in version 1.25.381.00.90 of the Google Docs app during our APK teardown. The first change will introduce three new filters you’ll be able to use when searching for a document. These filters include: Type: The type of file, like a spreadsheet, document, or presentation.
The type of file, like a spreadsheet, document, or presentation. People: This filters files by the people who own the file.
This filters files by the people who own the file. Modified: Filters documents based on the last time the file was modified (e.g., last seven days, last 30 days, this year, last year, and a custom range). The screenshot to the left shows a query entered in the current search screen. Meanwhile, the right screenshot shows the same query entered into this update search screen.
