Tech giant Google has rolled out its Illustrations tool to its contact management service 'Google Contacts' on Android, which allows users to create a custom profile picture. In Contacts, the new 'Google Illustrations' tool is available while editing any contact. 'Illustrations' displays as the first tab next to 'Google Photos' and 'Device photos', reports a media source.

Gmail had gained the 'Google Illustrations' tool in September 2021. The collections are unchanged, but the tech giant has added more options to each of the sub-categories since launch. After users select an image and they are in the editor, they can see a new 'Quick crops' feature that shows interesting parts of an image and joins the other colour tools, the report said.

Meanwhile, the tech giant had added a new 'Highlight' tab to Google Contacts on Android. The new tab appears between 'Contacts' and 'Fix & manage' in the Material You bottom bar.
