The Google Dashboard gives the users a snapshot of their account: everything Google knows about your interactions with them at one place. Google has today announced a major UI overhaul to the dashboard. This update will begin rolling out to all users starting next week.
Google states that this UI overhaul will allow the users to take better control over their privacy. This change in the design is based on various surveys conducted by Google and the feedback sent in by the users. This is not a minor change in design but a complete, ground-up renovation of the service.
The dashboard gives you statistics about your Google account and all it’s linked services: the number of mails you have in your Gmail inbox, the places you have visited while logged in to a Google account, your search history, the number of docs and photos you have and much more. The Google Dashboard started off in 2009 and has since been the one-stop solution for all your usage statistics. As seen in the comparison above, Google has introduced major changes which represent information in a more meaningful manner.
Google’s re-designed Google dashboard helps improve the way privacy controls are handled. In their blog, Google highlights some of their major privacy features:

In July, Google re-branded Google Now as Google Feed. Back when it was originally introduced, this section was the ‘information center’ for your phone, where you would get updates from frequently visited websites, stock updates, travel schedules, sports scores and much more.
The new and updated ‘Google Feed’ gives you more of a ‘social network’ sort of a feel. No, it doesn’t really show you information from your friends and family, but it shows you updates in a and top stories from your Google interactions as well as based on your location. Interestingly, Google has announced that the Google Feed will be available in English, as well as Hindi!
That aside, this new Google Feed offers the users with a refreshed experience as this is the place you can now come to when you have nothing on your mind. The Google Feed now introduces a smarter way to do things. The feed shows you latest trends on Google as well as things that are trending in your area, as well as the world. Basically, the feed will not just be limited to your interaction with Google but also to the place you are at.
To give you a more social media-esque feel – the Google Feed will now feature the ability to ‘follow’ stories. Basically you can follow certain types of search results to get constant updates about them. If you follow a celebrity, let’s say Tom Hanks, you’d get to see top stories on him. Similarly you can follow your favorite organizations, sport teams, movies and more.
Moreover, the social media feel that you would get would be quite holistic. Google mentions that they are going to include all sorts of viewpoints (quite essential, in the era of alternative facts).
This update to the Google Feel is rolling out for the Google App for Android as well as the iOS, as well as to the Pixel launcher. Swiping to the Google Feed on your phone will now be a better experience than ever before!
