The Google News & Weather app for Android has been updated semi-regularly since it was re-branded in 2014. But during that time, the desktop site remained mostly unchanged.

The new layout consists of a user-configurable sidebar, a list of ‘Story Cards,’ and additional info like weather reports and commonly-searched keywords.
