Introducing a redesigned search results page in Google Chat

What’s changing

Building on the improved search results recently announced in Google Chat, we're also upgrading the search results page to help you find the right message, file or space in Chat.

Specifically, Chat will now highlight relevant keywords in search results and display clear boundaries between results for easier browsing. The highlighted keywords may be an exact match to your search query or phrases that are related to your search query.
