Overview
- Users and reporters have observed a server-side trial that replaces Wallet’s top-of-screen horizontal carousel with a vertically stacked list of saved payment cards.
- The current carousel requires horizontal swipes and shows only a sliver of neighboring cards while letting users reorder payment methods and set a default card.
- The vertical layout displays cards one below another so each card’s design is more visible and frequently used cards can sit nearer the thumb for easier single-hand access.
- The change has been reported mainly by international users and covered by outlets that cite user screenshots and observations rather than an official Google announcement, so the redesign remains an experiment not a wide release.
- This trial follows several Wallet updates earlier this year, including a homepage redesign and fullscreen passes revamp, and could make the app easier to use for people with many saved cards and passes.
