I hope key lime pie really changes the color palette to something other than that god awful blue in the notification bar and app drawer. Notification bar always looks hideous during the lockscreen and almost every app that doesn't look good with blue. ex. Google music, spotify, Note, G+, etc, etc. (Almost every app). Google needs more colors in KLP.
They should bring back the white and green and add some transparency to Android. HTC's notification bar looks great and Google should do something like this:
Also the on screen buttons need a major redesign. They don't look well with the design Google is starting to go with JB and future versions. The buttons are still from Honeycomb. Not only that but Google needs to give us a way to hide and bring the buttons out on command with a gesture or something. I need my FULL SCREEN apps. They should implement something like PIE.
Also obligatory: Keep adding butter. Still not as smooth as WP and iOS.
Those are some of the major gripes I have against Android right now. Here's hoping 5.0 is a huge update as ICS was.
Also KLP for G Nex pls
I agree on most points except the transparency. Not too fond of that.
More apps should support hiding of the software buttons though, especially reading apps like Pocket or even Chrome.
I think a visual overhaul is pretty much needed, because the dark menus are pretty dull looking now. I'd love a card style menu that can be expanded instead of entered. Needless to say I think they've got something big in store if Google's own apps' design updates are anything to go by.
