The upcoming Google Docs will place the Toolbar at the top for a streamlined experience across apps. Google is also planning to update Workspace apps with all the features that are borrowed from their web versions. This includes fresh iconography, colors, and rounded elements.
Google has shared a screenshot of the apps tablet interface. We have to wait and see whether the UI will scale properly on mobile. We also don’t know when the search engine giant will roll out the update. Google is also pushing a change where you will view Type @ to insert option. This will help you to make use of the smart canvas functionality in Sheets.

They can use their personal accounts and devices with age-appropriate content.
Google also announced the launch of curricula like Be Internet Awesome, which teaches kids and skills they need to stay safe and responsible. The Android manufacturer also established partnerships with companies such as CommonSense Media, ConnectSafely, and FOSI. These platforms will enable families in protecting students online.
