I actually like the direction they've gone in..
There's a lot of backlash EVERY time there are branding revamps,
however in this situation I've been pretty receptive of the changes.
The 'google' colour branding across their app icons is useful as users will instantly associate those colours with being Google's
With my previous Android device I very clearly remember not being able to identify which Calendar app was Google's vs Samsung's. Additionally, I had no idea the old hangouts app icon was Google hangouts, as I never used it. But evidently the icon itself wasn't enough to get my attention as being Google's
The only icon I don't like is the Google docs one as the icon itself doesn't really convey what it is. Atl east know it's obviously from the Google suite though.

- __alias 6y agoSure, which in that case I guess makes it a good design & business decision. As a user, I don't see any problem with that either
