Fitbit app gets foldable, tablet redesign on Android

Fitbit for Android has been updated to better accommodate larger screens, particularly tablets and foldable devices. The new design features four customizable stat rings arranged side-by-side, replacing the previous layout of one large circle and three smaller ones. The app now utilizes a dual-column layout instead of a single stat card, improving space efficiency and navigation, especially in landscape mode. Enhanced navigation controls for viewing previous and next days have also been added. This update is part of version 4.30, which may have been released prior to the official announcement. The app currently does not include a dark theme, but there are expectations for its introduction as Google migrates legacy stat pages to the new design.

Google Photos is getting a video player makeover: New UI, features revealed (APK teardown)

Google Photos is set to release a new video player interface in its latest Android version, featuring dedicated buttons for Volume, Pause, and a Loop function. The design has shifted from an overlay to a more polished layout, with the Pause button positioned beneath the video. The seek bar has changed from a straight-line to a dotted format, incorporating haptic feedback. Users will also be able to double-tap the left and right sides of the video to rewind or fast-forward by five seconds. These features are being tested in version 7.4 of the app and are expected to roll out soon.
