Are you guys tired of the “Material You” design? I don’t really like the huge paddings on everything aspect of it. Also a lot of it feels too flat. What do you guys think?

    But companies like to brand for, among others, usability and legal reasons. They aren’t going to participate in neutering the brand they have invested so much in. It doesn’t really matter if the user “likes” it because it’s pretty. What matters is if the companies pouring money into app development like it, and if the users can easily identify the apps they want to use. That’s why it has such low adoption.

      I prioritize apps that have the option. If companies want me to choose their app over another, they’ll offer it.

      I have no problem identifying the app I want to use. My apps are alphabetized. Easy peasy.

        Most apps aren’t “choice” apps. Things like banking, transit, etc. I doubt you’d change your bank or refuse to take the bus just because they don’t allow their app to be colored based on a random pixel measurement from a background image. And if so, I’d like to think you’d be in the limited minority.
