With the in-app redesign widely available, Google Calendar for Android is now rolling out M3 Expressive homescreen widget updates.
At full width, the Calendar schedule widget switches from a floating action button-esque rounded square to a pill for adding events. The reduced height translates to letting you see one more line of text or so. Meanwhile, the font for the month is a bit thicker.
Old vs. new
If you make this widget narrower, Google is dropping the two-column interface where the day and date appear in a pill at the left. Instead, it appears at the top for a standard list design with less abbreviation. It’s a more straightforward look (and possibly easier to miss on your homescreen), but the increased information density is nice.
The only change to the Calendar month view widget is the ‘plus’ pill at the top-right corner.
We’re seeing these M3 Expressive widgets with Google Calendar 2025.32.0.x, but the server-side update is not yet widely rolled out.
