However, recent developments indicate that the logo is finally set to join the ranks of other four-color icons representing various <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/tag\/google\/\"   title=\"Google\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">Google<\/a> apps.<\/p>\n<p>In May, Google presented the new logo, but a recent <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/tsdr.uspto.gov\/#caseNumber=98250803&amp;caseSearchType=US_APPLICATION&amp;caseType=DEFAULT&amp;searchType=statusSearch\">patent filing<\/a><\/span>    with the United States Patent and Trademark Office revealed a slightly edited version (via <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2023\/11\/05\/new-google-chat-logo\/\">9to5Google<\/a><\/span>).  Although the patent doesn&#8217;t explicitly mention Google Chat, it does refer to &#8220;downloadable instant messaging software.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Describing the logo, Google states in the patent filing that \u201c<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">the mark consists of a hollow, multi-colored square &#8220;bubble&#8221; with three rounded corners and a flattened upper right corner.  The flattened upper right corner is red.  The left and top sides are formed by a blue line followed by a dark blue square with a rounded corner at the top right.  The right side and bottom are formed by green rounded lines followed by a dark green square at the bottom right.  There is a green mark at the bottom of the square.  There is a yellow line at the top of the rectangle.<\/span>\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>The proposed new design aligns with the four-color scheme, seen in the icons of Gmail, Drive, Meet, Maps and others.  Currently, Google Chat&#8217;s logo features overlapping bubbles, reminiscent of its predecessor, Hangouts. <\/p>\n<p>Despite the redesign, introduction of AI features and upcoming logo update, Google Chat is struggling to secure a top spot among messaging apps worldwide.  Statistics reveal that only 13% of messaging <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/tag\/app\/\"   title=\"app\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">app<\/a> users in the United States opt for Google Chat.  <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/tag\/whatsapp\/\"   title=\"WhatsApp\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">WhatsApp<\/a> remains the world leader with more than 2 billion monthly users, followed by China&#8217;s WeChat and Facebook Messenger.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google Chat logo to get a colorful makeover in line with Google&#8217;s design evolution\u060c Earlier this year, Google unveiled a revamped chat experience powered by AI features and a complete overhaul, aiming for a more user-friendly interface, thanks to the updated design-inspired color palette, typography and visual style Material You 3 from the tech giant.
