The Google Search app for both iPhone and iPad on the desktop and mobile, now offers customisable icons for home screens. Aside from default red, green, yellow and blue “G” inside a white box, the new update also has a dark background version. Then, there’s a dark “G” icon inside a white background and white “G” icons inside a black background.
To customise them, tap on your profile image in Google Search for Settings> General> Change app icon. This is rolled out in the version 324.0.
The Google Search bar widget on Android also offers the same colours for logos as the ones on the Google Search update for iOS. The new icons also show up on the square and rectangular Google Search widgets that offer shortcuts for text, Lens, voice and Incognito queries.
The Google app on the iOS has all the features from Read Aloud to Google Password Manager access with system-wide autofill support.
