Google Docs adds 40 new templates to spruce up your documents

Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Google Docs is rolling out 40 new templates to make your documents more visually appealing. The new pageless templates cover a wider range of scenarios, whether you’re writing a blog post, creating a project roadmap, or making an interview guide. Google says its “high-quality, visually modern” templates come with preset layouts and styles. They also make use of some of the newer features within Google Docs, such as tabs to better organize documents and placeholder chips that let others know the information they need to fill in. GIF: Google I’m not seeing the new templates just yet, but Google notes that the full rollout could take up to 15 days. Still, I’m glad to see Google adding more designs, as I’ve always felt Docs fell short in terms of template variety and quality when compared to Microsoft Word and even Canva. You can access templates in Docs by selecting the “Templates” button at the top of a new document or by heading to File > New > From template gallery. The new templates will be available to everyone with a personal Google account, as well as Google Workspace customers and Workspace Individual subscribers. Google plans on rolling out “even more high-quality Docs template options in the coming months.”
