Google recently rolled out the latest Android 12 operating system and the smartphone manufacturers are now releasing an updated version of their custom interfaces or skins based on the new Android version.

While the rollout of Android 12 is still ongoing, the tech giant has already started working on the upcoming version of the Android operating system and some of the features of the Android 13 have already surfaced online.

Now, a new report from Android Police reveals that the Android 13 will come with some UI changes apart from the addition of new features. Google could be giving a new look to the output picket menu in the upcoming Android 13.

For those who are unaware, the output picker is a part of the media controls, showing a button at the top-right with information about which device is playing the media such as cast devices, Bluetooth buds, and speakers.

The report further indicates that the functionality of the feature remains the same and while the images don’t show the button, it can be accessed from Settings. The volume sliders have also been replaced by newer thicker ones.

The disconnected devices are now grayed out and are no longer marked as “disconnected.” Round icons have also gone missing and the selected output device now has a checkmark to make it clear which device is active.

The updated design aims to make it cleaner and clearer for improving the user experience keep the design consistent with other elements in the Android operating system. But do note that this is still very early and it could get changed by the time Android 13 launches.
