Google Has New Icon Designs, And People Don’t Like It

G Suite has been recently rebranded by Google. The app collection, which is now known as Google Workspace, now has new icon designs as well. According to Google, these new icon designs reflect a “more connected, helpful, and flexible experience” on the Workspace. But it seems that the new designs create unnecessary confusion, and they don’t seem to help the average user. Tarvin Gill from Mashable has this to say about the new icon designs:

I’m on the fence about this new design. On one hand, I do like the consistency of the new icons. They all share the same colors and stand out from the other app icons on my phone.
But on the other hand, I find myself taking longer to open up any Google app because I have to make sure I’m launching the right app.

How about you? What do you think about this?

For MrsO, no Christmas season is complete w/o viewing the Grinch cartoon on TV. When our kids were little, we had Christmas Roast Beast for dinner on Christmas Day. We still keep that tradition to this day, and hope to have passed it on to our children and grandchildren.
