Material design has taken over Android and we are seeing it in more and more applications each day. According to a leak at Droidcon by a Google employee we should see the Gmail app updated to material design beginning next week.
We shouldn’t be surprised to see a staged rollout like previous versions of Gmail and the source states that it may begin as early as Monday November 3rd. Monday is going to be a big day with Lollipop source code being released to the public already and this just adds to the excitement.

Primecast blocked from operation, app pulled from Google Play
After only three days of exposure, Amazon has had Primecast blocked from use. From what I understand it was restricted via Amazon’s backend. That means there was no legal action taken against the Primecast developers or threats of action. The developers have taken the app down of their own volition. Contrary to what was written […]
