Ahead of the Pixel Tablet’s release, Google continues to refine the layout of its apps. One of the latest GDrive app updates introduces a new NavRailFeature_enable_nav_rail flag, which, when enabled, moves the navigation bar and the floating action button on the tablet layout to the left edge of the screen (in any orientation).
Remarkably, this change also applies to phones in landscape orientation, thereby freeing up vertical space. The same was done earlier in the Google TV app.
Recently, Google rolled out Material You design for Google TV. The design includes a new bottom bar that’s taller and makes use of pill-shaped indicators to note your current tab.
Also, you can see that the app bar has been revamped with a search field that spans the entire width of the screen. In last the “Google TV” is appeared centered in the bar and does not disappear or show a search hint like in other apps.
