TL;DR

• Google is expanding its Material 3 Expressive redesign in the Contacts app.
• It is now experimenting with redesigning the interface for sharing contacts using VCF files.
• The change, however, also adds “review” screens, increasing the number of steps in the sharing process.

Google Phone and Contacts apps have already received a Material 3 Expressive treatment for their main UI elements. And now, Google appears to be cleaning up finer areas, adding the Expressive design to another small section of the Contacts app.
