A Modernized Search Experience for Programmable Search Engine
Wednesday, February 11, 2026
We are excited to announce a refreshed, modernized UI for Programmable Search Engine, designed to provide a more intuitive and visually engaging experience for your users. As web design standards evolve, we want to ensure that the search functionality you integrate into your sites remains clean, professional, and aligned with the high-quality experience users expect from Google. This update focuses on streamlining the interface to reduce visual clutter, making it easier for your audience to find the information they need quickly and efficiently.
The updated interface provides an optimized desktop and mobile UI, so users can have more readable and usable experiences, regardless of their viewport. You will also notice improved typography for better readability and more prominent visual elements like result thumbnails. Best of all, no changes are required for most partners. However, those who have implemented custom CSS rules to override the previous Programmable Search Engine UI may need to make adjustments to ensure their styling aligns with the modernized experience. This new has already begun rolling out to all search engines, providing a polished, effortless upgrade for your site visitors.
