Recently, information about Material 3 Expressive has emerged, indicating a significant evolution in Android’s design language. Google is in the process of redesigning its apps based on these new guidelines, with details about the Google Clock app’s redesign surfacing through leaks.
The Telegram account Mystic Leaks has shared images showcasing the new look of the Google Clock app. This source has previously provided details about Android 16, adding credibility to the information they released.
Upon examining the leaked images, it is evident that almost all tabs have received updates. Notably, the bottom navigation has been altered with a shorter indicator that helps users identify their current section.
Furthermore, the “Clock” and “Timer” tabs will be renamed “World Clock” and “Timers,” reflecting their actual functionalities, as users can simultaneously check multiple time zones and set various timers. Starting with the “Alarms” tab, the overview maintains its core features but introduces a square “Add” button in the lower right corner, contrasting with the previous circular design.
Changes become more pronounced when accessing alarm details, where time is displayed using vertically “narrowed” numbers. The AM and PM buttons adopt new shapes for better usability.
In the “Timer” tab, the design shifts dramatically, featuring a much larger “Start” button instead of the smaller “Play” button. There is also now a direct way to name each timer and access preset shortcuts.
The “Stopwatch” tab has undergone similar transformations, with large icons replacing the smaller ones for clearer function recognition. While images of the World Clock tab are not available, the redesign indicates a focus on big buttons, descriptive text, and unique shapes.
This approach aims to create a more expressive interface, which we can expect to see elaborated upon at Google I/O 2025.
