- Google’s Phone app is testing a redesign, potentially replacing tabbed navigation with a side navigation drawer known as a hamburger menu.
- The redesign includes a hamburger menu accessed from the top search bar, replacing tabs for Favorites, Recents, Contacts, and Voicemail.
- The use of hamburger menus in Android apps has decreased with the rise of gesture navigation and more legible tabbed interfaces.
- A string in the Phone app’s code suggests preparation for satellite connectivity in Android 15 and the upcoming Pixel 9.
- Other Google developments include new Drive search filters, icon trials, and improvements in bottom sheet design, but it is unclear if they are related to the Phone app redesign.
