The Google Home redesign has disappeared for some users

Not too long ago, Google pushed a new design to Google Home, and it made for a better user experience. However, some people are opening the app to see that the Google Home redesign has suddenly disappeared.

Google was testing this new UI with users via an early access program, and it just hit the public this May. So far, it’s been going well. The new design gives the app a look more consistent with the modern Google app look. This means that it employs the Material You design language. However, if you haven’t updated your app to the new design, then you might want to wait until the next update hits the app.

The Google Home redesign is disappearing for some users

This issue is affecting users across both Android and iOS. People are starting up the app to find that it had reverted back to the old design. This is a weird thing to happen, but so are all software bugs.

We’re not sure what the reason behind this is, but there are some common threads. For starters, this issue seems to be tied to the latest version of the app to land. Version 3.2 was just released last week, so the issue might be within the latest update. If you haven’t updated, you might want to skip this version.

For some reason, this issue might be tied to the data that the app saves on your device. According to 9To5Google, if you go into the app’s settings and clear the storage, it will go back to the new UI. However, it will eventually revert back to the older version after some time.

There may be an actual solution

One common thread we’re seeing among the reports is that most of the people experiencing this problem signed up for the early access program. This is the beta program that allows people to try out new features early.

Leaving the program seems to solve the problem absolutely. We’re not seeing reports of the app reverting back after leaving it. If you’re enrolled in the program, and you’re experiencing this issue, try leaving it. After you leave it, you might want to uninstall and reinstall the app. If you’re still having the issue, then you might want to wait for the next update.
