Google have redesigned its sign-in/sign-up pages
Google keep its apps updated with UI redesign updates. But it’s been a while since the platform updated its login web page. However, with the latest update, Google is releasing a new sign-in page with a somewhat cleaner design after teasing it for a few weeks. Although the modifications are minor and have no bearing on functioning, users frequently encounter them, and from what I can tell, Google has been using the earlier version ever since changing its logo.
The updated version brings the sign-in (and sign-up) page closer to the company’s 2014 Material Design ethos. As a result, it is now left aligned (as opposed to centered) and has an orientation that changes automatically based on the size of your screen; on PC screens, it is broader, while on smartphones, it is narrower. All device types can see it, albeit outdated browsers might not be able to see it, according to the company.
In 2015, Google made the most significant modification to its sign-in page by moving the password entry to a separate page. The upgrade was released “to minimize confusion among users of multiple Google accounts” and “in preparation for future authentication solutions that complement passwords,” according to the statement at the time. Google stressed that, like with the move to Gmail’s integrated view, the change will be permanent. With a start date of February 21 and an end date of March 4, 2024, the rollout will be very gradual.
