Google Play Store to get a major redesign

16 October, 2015
A major redesign is coming to the Google Play Store, a sneak peak of which was offered by the company's UI engineer Kirill Grouchnikov. The refresh will see the main Play Store page containing only two main tabs: Apps & Games and Entertainment, as opposed to the six separate sections - Games, Movies & TV, Music, Books, and Newsstand - that are there currently.

      it should with without any slow downs unless you have a 256mb ram or similar :)

        Still love Play store changes. I have iPad mini, though App Store looks good but the way Play Store present worldwide rating and reviews are so useful. The statistics, similar apps, preview video its very useful and easy to use.

                    I removed Google Play Store and Google Play Services and dont use them anymore because they overuse system resources and make phones tablets slower.

                          Funny how all people writing here are the same ones that complain when a single pixel is changed on a website and go into a coma every time the whole UI is changed.

                            Anonymous, 16 Oct 2015Just so you know, it's more natural to have rounded buttons... moreIt should also be noted, round icons were also traditionally harder to do before screen resolutions got high enough to do convincing curves on pixel-based monitors. Just look at anything fifteen-twenty years ago, especially mobile device screens, and see the visible steps on the edge of anything "rounded".

                              Just so you know, it's more natural to have rounded buttons, the touched area on the screen with your finger is also round. That's why Apple also insists on having most buttons round. Simple logic that simple folk don't understand.

                                  Whatever happened to the phrase 'If it ain't broke...'
                                  Rounded icons look childish and amateur - almost apple-like. They look like something designed circa 15 years ago. Whatever happened to the square flat material design concept.
                                  Another 'make-work' project - graphic designers justifying their existence! :S

                                      Ugly rounded buttons... But it's ok, not a big deal.
