Google Calculator Gets a Slick Material 3 'Expressive' Redesign.

New Google Calculator

Google is rolling out a significant visual update for its popular Calculator app, bringing a fresh Material 3 "expressive" redesign. This new version, Google Calculator 9.0, overhauls several key elements to create a more modern and streamlined user experience.

One of the most notable changes is the removal of the traditional display container, giving the app a clean, completely flat background. The font for the numbers has also been updated to be skinnier.

The update introduces several functional and layout changes as well. Users will find a new button in the top-left corner to access calculation history, though the familiar swipe-down gesture for this action remains. The scientific actions have been condensed and are now accessible via a new "expand" button located above the numpad.

In terms of aesthetics, the buttons have been transformed into "pills" that stretch to the edges of the screen, and the number keys now have a lighter background for better visual separation. The three-dot overflow menu has also been refined with a consistent "Clear history" option and new icons for all menu items. The landscape tablet layout has also been adjusted to match the new phone design.
