🇬🇧 Google Search discover is testing new tiles with weather and stocks. These tiles are located at the very top of the list (as it was previously with the old weather tile). They can be customized by leaving only one of them, but it is not possible to completely…
Google is widely rolling out a new tile in Discover feed with information about sports, weather, and finance.
By default you can only see the weather, but if you subscribe to updates for a particular sports team or stock of a particular company, you will have the option to add Sports and Finance. The settings are called up by sliding the tile to the left and pressing the pencil button.
We first saw this tile a year ago, and it hasn't changed much since then. Except that the tile now has an outline, the + icon has been replaced with a pencil, and some string changes.

🇬🇧 Google is working to bring Material You to Chrome OS It's still in the prototype stage and Google could change everything, but 9to5Google has made a close approximation mockup based on the code description of what the windows could look like with the…
Here's what Chrome OS looks like with the Material You dynamic colors.
Redditor u/kentexcitebot by upgrading his Chrome OS device to a fresh Canary build was able to enable a new internal "Jelly" flag that dynamically changes the themes of various system interface components depending on the desktop wallpaper.
As you can see, the work on the feature is not finished yet, but it already looks nice. It was also previously reported that Google is experimenting with adding rounded corners to app windows.

Google Search app tests the UI with Material Design 3 components.
The first of the changes is a redesigned bottom navigation bar, where the current page is indicated by a pill that also has nice animations when switching.
The second change is a redesigned settings pages UI with larger headers and new MD3 toggles. Unfortunately, because of the way the app is designed, some pages look mixed (e.g., "hide explicit results"), because they are essentially an embedded web UI.
Also, this redesign does not apply to the assistant settings page.
This is a server-side change spotted in 13.44.10.29.
Thanks, Harun (@ToukoNoManji)!

YouTube Music rolling out Now Playing redesign that hides dislike button.
At the top it identifies where the current song is “Playing from.” (Liked, playlist, radio or artist page). To the right is the relocated Cast button, which was previously in the interface when you clicked on the cover art.
The cover itself now has more rounded corners, and the song title is aligned on the left edge. The "three dots" button is now more accessible, and the "Dislike" button is hidden there as well.
The play/pause button now has a white background and is no longer colored by the cover color.
