I read "platforms" in that sentence as the different Google platforms: Android on phones, Android on tablets, TV, Chrome, etc.

- luke_s 12y agoHmmm, funny I read it as the web, iOS and Android. I guess because google already uses their own look and feel for their iOS applications. Though typically I disagree with what he has to say John Gruber of daring fireball seems to think the same way I do: "If there’s a hitch, it’s that Google seems to be promoting this as a cross-platform design framework — a way to design just one interface for both iOS and Android. Google’s own apps for iOS already feel like weird moon man apps; now they’re encouraging third-party developers to follow their style rather than iOS’s." http://daringfireball.net/linked/2014/06/25/google-design http://daringfireball.net/linked/2014/06/25/google-design
- dazzla 12y agoI agree. From theverge.com article: "The design team at Google felt the need to come up with a more coherent look and feel that could be applied across all of its products, from Android to Chrome OS to the web."
