Refreshed interface for Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Sheets, and Google Slides

What’s changing

In the coming weeks, you’ll notice a new look and feel for Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, and Slides on Google. Following the release of Google Material Design 3, the refreshed user interface is purposefully designed to streamline core collaboration journeys across Google products.

In Docs, Sheets, and Slides, you’ll see improvements such as:

• A simplified user interface at the top of your docs, sheets, and slides, helping you find frequently used actions faster.
• Additional user experience improvements in commenting, background, rulers, and gridlines.
• Note that while there are no changes in functionality, some features have been relocated to reduce clutter within the new interface. Notably, you can find the latest status info for the doc, such as last edit and version history, via a single entry point: the clock icon in the top right corner.

In Drive, you’ll see improvements such as:

• Key actions surfaced inline on files, for quick access and increased productivity.
• Ability to select multiple items at a time and undertake batch operations for frequent tasks.
• New search chips (including type, owner, and last modified) to help you find files faster.
