Gemini’s new app design makes me worried for the future of Android UI

Wait 5 sec.

Credit: Brady Snyder / Android AuthorityIt’s been a month since Google started rolling out its “Neural Expressive” design in Gemini across its mobile apps and the browser. Google also revealed that this new Expressive design powers Gemini Intelligence and will be pivotal in the way you interact with Android’s smart new experiences (such as integrations with food delivery apps) over the coming months.But ever since I got the design and started using it, I can’t shake the feeling that it’s one step forward and several steps back for the Gemini app and, by extension, the future of Android’s entire design language.
