A bunch of new upcoming changes to the Google Contacts app:
- Redesigned Call, SMS, etc. buttons, which are now presented as a circle with an icon inside.
- A new ‘Google Maps · Location sharing’ tile, which when clicked will open a map with the contact’s location (if they have shared the location with you).
- A new tile will appear on the ‘Highlights’ tab with Suggestions for who to add to your favorites. As stated, this is “based on who you interact with most“.
These hidden features complement the previous changes we discovered, such as the time and weather tile by the contact’s home address and the new round-frame photo display. All of these new features are built inside the latest version 4.9.19.533509922 and require only server-side activation (which means, they are not yet available).
