  "account": "Google's redesigned Gmail settings are gradually making their way onto Android devices, featuring a fresh coat of paint with Material 3 Expressive styling. The updated interface showcases vibrant icons, rounded cards, larger controls, and a better-organized layout. The redesign was first spotted in Gmail version 2026.11.02.1020540846, though its availability is still limited.\n\nGoogle has been giving its Android apps a new look, but Gmail's settings had remained outdated. However, that is changing as the redesigned settings experience finally reaches users. The original discovery of Google's plan to clean up Gmail's cluttered settings menu was made in October. The new interface was manually enabled on an Android 15 device, but it was missing the system-level Material 3 Expressive styling introduced with Android 16. As a result, the reorganized settings were visible, but the full visual makeover was not yet fully realized.",
