Google is testing a change to the Google Play UI that will replace some of the three app icon carousels with lists.
Saving time is what Google has made Android's best features all about. Whether it is having the Assistant monitor our time on hold so we can do some work while waiting for a call to resume, or having the Assistant schedule appointments for us, Android helps us get more things done. And now Google is working on a feature for the Play Store that it believes will allow users to see more info about a particular app without having to open its listing.
For example, open the Play Store app and you'll see a heading that says,"Based on your recent activity." This is a carousel that shows three apps that you can choose from. If none of the three meet your needs, you can scroll to the left one additional app at a time. But is testing a new design that uses lists instead of visual carousels. The list, like the carousel, still scrolls to the left. A smaller icon for each app is seen on the left of the list.It would seem that Google isn't totally giving up on the carousel since the revamped Play Store shows the new list UI mixed in with the older carousel look.points out that the new UI design has not been widely disseminated yet.
Google is always looking to make small changes like this in order to shake things up. That's why you always see us writing about Google tests. Before Google decides whether to keep this look, it is going to want to hear from you.
