Redesigned nav buttons spotted on Google Design page and we’re not talking about the weird shapes from the Android L Preview

Redesigned nav buttons spotted on Google Design page and we’re not talking about the weird shapes from the Android L Preview



Google Design Nav buttons Android L


After seeing Android L’s newly redesigned triangle/circle/square navigation buttons, let’s just say we’re excited at this latest discovery that suggests they may not be the final design. We dug through Google’s Design page last week to show you guys some of the redesigned Google apps arriving later this year. Given it was a design page, we weren’t entirely sure what was nothing more than a quick mockup, and what could have been a legit screenshot.

After digging through that same design page, one eagle-eyed Reddit member found refreshed navigation buttons in one of the screenshots and wouldn’t you know it — they are not those odd shapes found in the Android L Developer Preview.


While this could mean any number of things (at worst, this is nothing more than a quick mockup), it appears these more traditional nav buttons were designed with Android L in mind. You’ll notice the back and home buttons have been slightly slimmed down, but it’s the multitasking button that mirrors the new 3D recents found in Android L.


It’s clear not everyone is a fan of Android L’s new nav buttons and we’re crossing our fingers that these more traditionally styled nav buttons will be what we see on non-Nexus stock Android devices that debut in Android Silver later this year.
