Google Play is already preparing its new version with Material Design style
That the company Google has a great job ahead before the release of the next version of its operating system Android L is something that does not escape anyone. The curious thing is to know some leaks and information that shows details about what is cooking in their offices. The latest to transcend are some new images that show the direction that the application store is taking Google Play, at least in terms of style and design.And it is that the philosophy and lines of the call Material Design begin to be noticed in the services of Google
The images leaked by the specialized media Android Police show how Googleis modifying Google Play And we say “is modifying” because, so it is known, the images belong to a test version that could well be still far from the final design and visual aspect that is being prepared. So it's possible that until the fall months, when Android L is ready, things will have changed even more. However, it seems to be a well-worked and most attractive design that greatly modifies what is seen in this store of applications, games, movies, books and music Or that more appears recently as a standalone update, as has happened with apps like Google+
One of the most visible changes that can be seen in the filtered images is that of the detail pages of the contents. Thus, when searching for content and clicking on it to see its description, Google Play no longer shows its icon and cover on a generic background, but each content counts with your custom cover In this way, the background shows an extended image of your icon, a video with the trailer of the film or the cover image of the disc to which it belongs the song. Something that is quite reminiscent of the covers of the channels of the platform YouTube, and that increases the color of the detail pages of all the contents. But there are more visual changes in this fledgling new version.
Following the style policies that Google has described in what it has called Material Design , lines and superfluous elements have been eliminated That is why the rest of the content detail screen has changed to directly show the text of the description and other elements that, until now, were presented in their respective cards or boxes. In this way, under the description it is possible to directly see the stars rating, if movie has sub titles, if game has leaderboards and achievements , etc. Also highlighted thanks to the elimination of other elements are issues such as the number of likes that this content has received through Google+ , the possibility to share it or add it to the wish list.Elements that are placed in the middle of the screen at the end of the user comments.
Finally, they also reorder and place options such as send a report or complaint about the content, check the permissions requesting an application or visiting the developer's web page Elements that seek minimalism and that, according to what was shown in event Google I/O, they will have dynamic to fit the screen and present an organic and moving aspect when browsing the different sections.
At the moment it is unknown if this will be the final style of Google Play upon the arrival of Android L, or whether any of these changes will actually take effect. And, for the moment, it is a trial version Without a doubt, a very stylish and attractive version.
