Version 7.14 of the app introduces some subtle UI tweaks, and you can already check them out.<\/p>\n<p>The most obvious change is in the app toggle switches. They\u2019ve been refreshed with a chunkier, more rounded design, an outline that shows in the off position, and a slightly brighter color scheme. You\u2019ll see the new look in the alarm list and the settings menu, giving the app a more modern feel without overhauling the core layout. It\u2019s a small tweak, but one that fits neatly into Google\u2019s evolving design language.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Bg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Google Clock Toggles Before Redesign 1\"  alt=\"Google Clock Toggles Before Redesign 1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Clock-Toggles-Before-Redesign-1-scaled.jpg\"\/>Alarms before redesign<img class=\"e_Bg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Google Clock Toggles Before Redesign 2\"  alt=\"Google Clock Toggles Before Redesign 2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Clock-Toggles-Before-Redesign-2-scaled.jpg\"\/>Settings before redesign<img class=\"e_Bg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Google Clock Toggles After Redesign 1\"  alt=\"Google Clock Toggles After Redesign 1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Clock-Toggles-After-Redesign-1-scaled.jpg\"\/>Alarms after redesign<img class=\"e_Bg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Google Clock Toggles After Redesign 2\"  alt=\"Google Clock Toggles After Redesign 2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Clock-Toggles-After-Redesign-2-scaled.jpg\"\/>Settings after redesign<\/p>\n<p>These changes lay the foundations as Google preps a much more dramatic revamp of the Clock app. Back in May, we got a look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/google-clock-material-3-expressive-design-3554619\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">full redesign expected in Version 8<\/a>, showcasing some of the boldest Material 3 Expressive visuals yet. That version includes oversized fonts, an updated alarm creation panel, redesigned buttons for dismissing alarms, and a wallpaper-based background to replace the old blank canvas.<\/p>\n<p>None of those larger changes are live yet, but today\u2019s update shows Google is setting the stage. Clock v7.14 may not be a huge leap forward, but we\u2019ll keep a close eye out for the complete revamp in future versions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Got a tip?
