Yet Another Contribution to the UI Fragmentation of Android ⇥

Min Ming:

Google, here is the problem: If you cannot make the UI of your apps consistent, how do you expect developers to follow your design language? Which one should they follow?

I knew Android’s UI was inconsistent, but I didn’t realise just how thorough and pervasive the fragmentation is. It’s almost as if Google has never opened two or more of their own apps at once. For instance, there are nine different tab styles within Google’s own apps.
