Google Contacts app has been updated to version 4.34, allowing users to view and respond to notifications directly in the widget. This update makes the app serve as a hub for all media with a saved contact, displaying quick responses, additional information, and reminders of important dates associated with the chosen contact. The latest update follows a previous one that introduced a bell icon for text message previews in the widget. This new version is now available on the Google Play Store and enhances the user experience by providing more functionality within the widget. It can display more than just the latest message and smart reply suggestions, including reminders and shared location in Maps. These features are only available when creating an individual contact widget, showcasing Google’s commitment to ongoing experimentation and improvement of the app. With regular updates, Google Contacts continues to be a reliable dialer app that comes pre-installed on most phones, including Pixel devices. Future updates are expected to bring more changes and enhancements to the app’s user interface and functionality.
