Edit: I meant the ui on android 12+

    I like it a lot. It makes the device feel really cohesive between apps. And changing the color every now and then feels like a breath of fresh air. Also, the pastel colors help to get rid of blue/grey tones which is easier for the eyes.

    I love it. Also makes it easier for app devs, like myself, to build an app that blends in with the device you’re using it on.

    strong dislike
    everything is bloated and round, the quick settings tiles are too large, like it was intended to be used by a grandma
    the colour scheme outside pixel is too unsaturated, oneui and aosp roms are not as colorful as pixel ui because google copyrighted it ig

    I strongly dislike it. Having themed colors seems immature and less functional. Having it tied to a wallpaper makes even less sense. I set my system color to grey and use an icon pack for my third party launcher. Padding and other regressions are harder to fix.

    4.4 was peak android.

      I don’t mind it as much, but the wallpaper thing is poorly executed. I have a color photo as my lock screen and a plainish lightly textured background on my home screen. But material you picks colors from the lock screen photo, which I don’t see 99.9% of the time!

      How does it diminish functionality for you?

      To me it seems like it only updates the accent pieces of the UI

    I think it’s ok. The problem is my wallpaper is a cat so everything material you is like light coffee colored which I don’t really like. But I’m too lazy to find a better color that doesn’t look worse.

    Mostly ambivalent to it.

    However, the quick settings is a big downgrade from before. Less buttons, more space. And don’t even get me started on the horrible design of the internet toggle.
