Today, we’re excited to announce new and improved widgets for Chat app cards, including:
Modern and sleek style

You can choose from a range of icons or images to visually represent the section’s content, making it easier for users to understand and interact with the information. Collapsible text paragraphs that let users reveal more information on demand. This widget is perfect for presenting lengthy content or additional details that can be explored when selected, creating a dynamic and interactive user experience.

We’re excited to introduce document tabs in Google Docs, a new feature to help you organize longer documents, centralize information, and make collaboration easier.
You can now use tabs to draft and build content in a way that makes it possible for you to find what you’re looking for quickly and stay on task. Plus, readers can navigate through your document with ease and focus on sections that matter most to them.
Tabs in Docs can be particularly useful when you need to break down long, structured documents into smaller, more digestible sections. For example:
A marketing manager can build a campaign brief using different, focused tabs for budget, goals, and creative ideas. A sales leader creating pitch templates can now have dedicated tabs for each industry or territory. A customer service representative can create tabs for each solution to address common customer service issues. A project manager can create a tab for budget, roles and responsibilities, goals, and key dates so that their working team can stay on track. A team manager can keep a record of routine documentation, such as recurring meeting notes, agendas, performance reviews, and quarterly planning updates. Within each tab, you can also create subtabs to add even more structure to your document. For instance,
a budget tab could include subtabs for travel expenses and agency fees, or a team makeup tab could include subtabs explaining each team’s roles and responsibilities.
Who’s impacted
End users
Why you’d use it
Structuring your Docs with tabs helps to organize longer documents, brings together existing documents more cohesively, and makes collaboration easier.
Additional details
Users have the option to set an emoji for each tab to visually represent its content and make navigation easier. The emoji will show to the left of the tab title in the left panel, which replaces the default article icon.
Getting started
Admins: There is no admin control for this feature. End users: For documents containing 2 or more tabs and new documents, the left panel will open by default to let users navigate and manage tabs easily. When the left panel is closed, users can open it at all times by clicking on the Tabs & outline icon in the top left corner. You can also share links to specific tabs rather than sharing the link to an entire document by clicking on the three dots menu for a given tab > Copy link. Visit the Help Center to learn more about
using document tabs in Google Docs.

Earlier this year, we announced
voice messages in Google Chat, giving users a new way to communicate with others more effectively. Today, we are introducing video messages in Chat, a new capability that helps you save time, convey more information, add tone or emphasis, and can be useful in a number of scenarios, such as:
Sales or customer support team members sending video updates about new features or account changes. Executives sharing company-wide announcements or strategic updates, fostering transparency and engagement across the organization. Team members sending a video with outstanding updates in lieu of attending a live meeting.

You can send video messages in 1:1 DMs, group DMs, and spaces, and they can be interacted with (quoted, reacted to, replied to in thread, etc) just like any other Chat message. Video messages will be stored in the Media section of the
Shared tab. You can send video messages on web and receive them on all platforms. The ability to record and send video messages on mobile is not available at this time. Visit the Help Center to learn more about

Admins now have the option to configure meeting recordings, meeting transcripts, and “take notes for me”* as on by default for newly created meetings. Meeting hosts and co-hosts can edit these settings in the Calendar invite, as well as turn these artifacts off during the meeting. We hope these settings help ensure artifacts are created for specific meetings or series of meetings, like sales calls or town hall meetings, without relying on manual intervention. When these meeting artifacts are turned on, attendees will be notified when they join the green room and when they join the meeting.
