The new in-call UI design in the Google Phone app started appearing for some beta testers and they took to Twitter to share screenshots of the new design, reports 9to5Google. As per the report, the change seems to have appeared with Google Phone v90.0.475844574. This new version of Google Phone is reportedly avialabe in the public beta. However, this might be a server-side update, so it might appear for all beta testers in some time.

The screenshots reveal that Google is testing a new in-call UI design for the Phone app that has sunken below the screen where the cheek doesn’t usually reach. The company has also added a “bottom bar” around the circular
buttons which are placed much lower than their existing positions.
The current in-call UI shows all the options but the new UI will show just four buttons. The fourth one from the left is the More option which will open up three more options when tapped on. The other three primary buttons will be — the Keypad, Mute and Speaker options, while the options inside the More button will be — Hold, Record and Add Call.
