    God damn are these icons ugly...
    What kind of root did they smoke to come up with the docs and meet icons? 🤮

    @frogstair They don't if they are grouped together which is the case in the common browsers and mobile launchers like mine. 'Utility' takes priority - Isn't that why those apps are there in the first place? I appreciate how they want to Googlise the icons but it is not helping.

    I guess they don't want apps to resemble their related real-world objects anymore 😕

    I had so much trouble finding the apps on the first 1-2 days.

    Fuck Google.

    Last two are indistinguishable. Google be investing millions into accessibility and then pulling out this

    @uyouthe nonono the last one has a small triangle!!
    But yeah.. They don't make it any better doing this

    It's just making the icons nondescript.
    So much for older folks trying to understand what the app does

    @PonySlaystation They're too busy with their mass surveillance practices that the designs might have gotten less attention...

    @Lexter As one of the leading organisations with a worldly impact, they have a huge responsibility, and it is okay for us to criticise when we have to. Organisations are nothing without customers, and customers can always voice up upon inconvenience. I don't hate Google. I like Google's products.

    Next iteration of icons: solid color icons that look like children's blocks

    It's getting more difficult to detect the gmail tab with this design....

    I find them useful; we have all our stuff on Google now. Makes collaboration easy. Also icons have names under them. Hey, work is not aesthetics!

    Gee I wonder what icon would resemble emails well.

    A letter with a flap that looks like an M which is a clever representation of both mail and the letter M?

    NOPE. Give me a fucking letter M with the color of a children's plastic toy and get rid of the envelope theme. That'll make more sense.

    Why in God's name would you change something that isn't broken? Is this what you do if you have 115 billion dollars in your war chest?!
