After nearly 10 years of the same design, Google is rolling out a fresh update to its beloved ‘G’ icon!

The last major makeover happened on September 1, 2015, when Google showcased a sleek new logo featuring the modern Product Sans typeface. This shift also introduced the circular design of the ‘G’ that we’ve come to recognize over the last decade.

Now, in a vibrant transformation, Google is revitalizing the ‘G’ icon by eliminating the rigid four-color sections. The exciting new design features a seamless gradient where red flows into yellow, yellow into green, and green into blue—yielding a more dynamic and colorful look. This change aligns beautifully with the Gemini gradient and complements the AI Mode in Search.

Old vs. New: A Subtle but Striking Change

The refreshed icon is already available on the Google Search app for iOS, following an update just yesterday. However, Android and web users will have to wait a bit longer to see this vibrant transformation. While it’s a subtle change that might fly under the radar—especially on a busy homescreen or as a tiny browser favicon—it marks a significant step in the visual evolution of one of the most recognized icons in the tech world.

What's Next for Google’s Logo?

As it stands, there hasn't been any word on a redesign of Google’s main logo, and it's uncertain if other product logos will receive similar updates. However, with a trend towards fluid designs, there's potential for logos like Chrome and Maps to adopt this new gradient style as well.
