Google Rolls Out Signature App to Android 12+ Devices in June 2026 Play Update

2 articles · Updated · Android Authority · Jun 29

Summary

  • June 2026’s Google Play system update is automatically adding Google’s new Signature app to Android devices, giving users a system-level way to store and insert signatures across supported apps.
  • Three signature formats are supported: on-screen scribbles, typed initials with font choices, and uploaded photos of handwritten signatures; users can save multiple versions and delete them from a management page.
  • Apps will be able to call the vault through a picker-style interface, letting users drop signatures into documents or identity-verification flows without relying on separate signing apps or stylus input.
  • API level 31 sets the floor at Android 12, and because the feature ships through Play system updates, availability does not depend on phone makers—though Google has not yet outlined developer adoption plans.
