• Google Home has now adopted dynamic color.
• The feature is rolling out widely today via the Play Store with version 3.28.1.6.
• Users will have to be on the Public Preview program.

Google released its big Material You redesign on Android 12, and it expanded even further with Android 13. Thanks to Material You’s Dynamic Color, users could personalize their devices to align with the color scheme of their wallpaper. For whatever reason, Google Home has long avoided Dynamic Color, but that’s coming to an end.

Last week, Google began testing a “Dynamic color scheme” for Google Home on Android phones and tablets. As the company explained, the app “will now reflect the color scheme that you choose for your Android phone or tablet for a more consistent and personalized experience.” The rollout was made available to those who are in the Public Preview program, but not everyone was seeing the change at the time. Now it appears the update has rolled out widely via the Play Store with version 3.28.1.6.
