If passes on Google Wallet<\/a> are starting to look a little different for you, then fret not, it’s an intended change.<\/p>\n

The big redesign, which is now beginning to roll out widely, changes several aspects of the Google Wallet<\/a> app, all while keeping the other aspects familiar. <\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThe irresistible Google Wallet feature I can’t give up
\n\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n

I keep coming back for this one feature<\/p>\n

The development was first pointed out by the folks over at 9to5Google<\/a>. Although the change hasn’t made its way to my Pixel 8 just yet, the provided images make the changes very evident.<\/p>\n

The debit\/credit card carousel on the homepage appears unchanged. Peer a little lower, and you’ll see the main changes. <\/p>\n

Previously, individual passes would encompass the full width of your screen. That’s not the case now. The app has transitioned to a two-per-row layout, as seen in the screenshots below.<\/p>\n

The FAB is getting a makeover<\/p>\n

The change should allow you to scan through more passes at once without having to scroll. You have the option to reorder cards (hold and drag), and choose the ones that appear on your homepage.<\/p>\n

There’s a view more button at the bottom to, well, let you view more passes. There’s a search box right at the top that lets you look up transactions, payment methods, and loyalty cards.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the large ‘plus’ Floating Action Button (FAB) in the bottom-right corner has been retired. It joins (literally) the view more button in the center of the display. It still takes you to the familiar ‘Add to Wallet’ screen.<\/p>\n

The redesigned app is currently rolling out. To try out the UI, make sure you’re running the latest Google Wallet (26.15.899638800<\/a>) and Play services builds (26.15.33).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If passes on Google Wallet are starting to look a little different for you, then fret not, it’s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":394333,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[342,111,139,69,145],"class_list":["post-394332","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mobile","tag-mobile","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/394332","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=394332"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/394332\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/394333"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=394332"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=394332"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=394332"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
