Google has been working on big changes to the Google Wallet app. We spotted a bold new redesign for passes in the app a couple of months ago, and if you’ve been waiting for it to hit your phone, you probably won’t have to wait much longer.

With the latest Google Wallet update (v26.32.962917069), Google has started rolling out the new pass design. The redesign puts a big focus on pass colors. Each pass still has its distinct color, but when you open one, it fills the entire screen with that color. All the UI elements within the pass are also tinted with the same color, giving the app a much more cohesive look. Take a look at what the new UI looks like:

If you’re not too happy about the redesign, the app has an option to “Switch to previous view,” which shows passes without the full-screen colors. However, it’s likely that this particular option will eventually be removed in future versions of the Wallet app.

The new design is a server-side update, so if you aren’t seeing the new UI with the latest version of the Wallet app, you’ll just have to wait. Google’s server-side rollouts are often slow and phased, which means there’s really no telling when the update might reach your devices. We also checked several of our test devices, and only a couple of them are showing the new UI.
