Google Working on Redesigned stock Android icons
Google is about to give the stock Android user interface a visual overhaul. Documents and screenshots obtained by Android Police reveal redesigned icons coming our way in the near future.
Reportedly, the new direction in Android iconography is dubbed Moonshine. It is similar to the style used by Google for its online services, and utilizes flatter-looking icons. See it below.
It must be noted that the leaked icons might not be final in terms of design. Everything could be subject to change before the things go official.
The new style is apparently referred to as Moonshine, and this flatter look is likely just a portion of an upcoming redesign. We're still awaiting details on what else may change, but for now, all we can do is look forward to new icons for Play Music, Books, Movies, and Games; as well as Google+, Calendar, People, Chrome, YouTube, Maps, Gmail, Hangouts, Camera, and the Play Store. Each of the icons appears to be more in line with what Google uses on the web.
Details on the debut of the new Android icons are yet to be revealed. I personally expect to see them break cover as part of a new Android version during the upcoming Google I/O developer conference in late June.
