New and improved widgets for Google Chat app cards

Was sich ändert

Google Chat app developers have the ability to add widgets and UI elements to make their app cards customizable and encourage users to interact with their apps in a variety of ways. 
Today, we’re excited to announce new and improved widgets for Chat app cards, including: 
Modern and sleek style buttons in line with the Google Material Design 3.

Die ChipList widget that provides a versatile and visually appealing way to display information. You can use chips to represent tags, categories, or other relevant data, to make it easier for users to navigate and interact with your content. 

An Overflow Menu that can be used in Chat cards to offer additional options and actions, without cluttering the card’s interface to ensure a clean and organized design. 

The option to customize the control button so that it collapses and expands sections within your Chat cards. 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.
