Google to give Android's Search widget an overhaul

Google has been playing around with new features for the Search widget, which is a staple on the home screen of most Android phones. Recently, the company was seen testing a fresh shortcut button on the widget, and now, it seems like it is also experimenting with a revamped widget design, along with some theming options.

A recent report suggests Google is planning to revamp the Search widget. Although the feature isn't live yet, hints of the redesign can be found in the Google app v15.47.26 beta. Combined with the previously spotted theming options, this update could bring a whole new look to the iconic widget.

Right now, the Search widget lets you choose from System, Light, Dark, and Device themes, with an option to tweak its transparency. But soon, you'll have the ability to create custom themes, letting you match or highlight your device's current look with contrasting elements.
