Following its initial trials last year, Google Messages has now expanded to include a revamped share experience. When selecting Google Messages from Android's share sheet, users are now presented with a full-screen "Select recipients" user interface. Notably, the upgrade provides easy access to ongoing chats by showcasing five recent conversations together with bits of the most recent message sent.
The redesigned Google Messages interface also includes a search button in the top-right corner for easier navigation. A full contact list, which replaces the "New message" option from the old pop-up UI, is located below. The new layout allows users to select more than one conversation at a time. Selected profile avatars appear in a top row and users can tap the "Next" FAB to continue and "Share individually."
Despite the gap between initial testing and this wider rollout, with no visible changes in between, it seems Google Messages is fully rolling out this share redesign. More users have reported receiving it in recent weeks, but it's not yet widely available. Currently, it's being observed in the beta channel. The new layout provides more information and context to users.
