Last year Google brought customizable illustrations into Gmail to help users customize their profile pictures. The feature is now available for the Contacts app on Android phones. You can use those illustrations to refresh the profile picture of your contacts. It will also have a little more privacy than using photos of themselves.

Android users can use Google illustrations to customize the profile picture of their contacts. The collections are available in different categories, such as animals, cities and places, food, hobbies and interests, nature, sports, and recreation, and allow a few customizations, like changing the color, crop, and rotation.
