How to Switch Google+ From Multiple Column to Single Column Layout?


Google+ switched to a default multi-column layout for the posts stream during their last major update announced during Google I/O 2013.

This layout (aka fluid layout) eliminates white spaces and shows posts as multiple columns (in a card format) and takes advantage of your screen resolution.

However for a lot of people this is not convincing. For them reading vertically is easier than reading across the screen row by row.

Luckily Google+ supports switching from multiple column layout to a single column layout (and vice versa) with the click of a button.
