  • Certain provisions are disorderly in specific parameters, forcing scrolling or text envelope.
  • Complaints accumulate on Reddit and Google’s assistance forum.

Google’s expressive youthful treatment for the clock application was supposed to be a simple style update, but many people are not impressed, to say the least. In all the Reddit and Google support forums, people find the redesigned, clumsy and generally a little disorderly redesigned application.

On R / Googlepixel SubdredditA complaint shows the nervousness time every second in the view of the global clock, with the resizing of the fonts and the lower user interface deploying each time the figures change. “It’s so bad that it’s funny,” reads the most voted answer.

It’s a similar story on R / NothingtechWith another video highlighting the nervous problem on the stopwatch. The variable width police mean that the numbers move horizontally when they check, giving the impression that the whole screen is unstable. It is not exactly ideal when you try to focus on precise timing. Some users have said that activation of the daring text makes it even worse. The video below comes from Alekslevet Reddit post.

This horizontal movement of numbers is not the only design reproach. A Post separate from a user nothing shows that the new oversized arrangement can no longer adapt to all orders on a single page, forcing them to scroll slightly.

Not everyone sees all these problems, because they seem to depend on the size of the display, the choice of fonts and other parameters. But that is undoubtedly part of frustration – Google’s default applications must be robust enough to manage these scenarios gently. Instead, the redesign of the Google clock feels half cooked, with complaints that accumulate only a few days after the start of the deployment.

For the moment, the only advice from the Google assistance forum is to submit comments and wait for a correction. Let us know in the comments if you have encountered similar problems.
