The Made by Google Twitter account posted a tweet assembling the Avengers Android 12 Material You Widgets. Which included screenshots from many of the Google apps. But most notably was the Gmail app which doesn’t have the Material You widget yet. And the same goes for Google Drive and YouTube Music. These are coming, but we don’t know when exactly.
The widgets will match your icons and other Material You aspects
Since it is using Material You, the widgets will change when you change your wallpaper. Which is pretty insanely cool. The YouTube Music app will show you the most recently played song, and thumbs up and play/pause button next to it. Then on the second row there are shortcuts to different playlists that you can start playing. For Gmail, you’ll see widgets that show your inbox, with different shortcuts on the side. Like Compose, Google Chat, and Google Meet. And finally, Google Drive will show a search bar, along with search results for different documents, which is also insanely helpful. There’s also an upload button available. The Google Photos widget is also pretty handy. Showing random pictures from your library in a few different shapes on your home screen. Now this isn’t really a Material You widget since it is all picture, and no real border around it that would tie into Material You. Material You is finally here for everyone, and it’s pretty darn awesome.
