Google Play Store may see a Material Design update

Google has slowly been adding in hints of Material Design into all of their applications, and everyone fully expects every Google app to see a facelift around the time that Android L gets released. We’ve seen a few leaks of some of these apps before, but next on the list is the Play Store itself.


Some leaked screens of Play Store listings show a much, much nicer interface for browsing apps, music, movies, and books. The tablet listings display the basic app information in front of a large header image that really creates a visually stunning look, although the picture is just a blank color for books. On a phone, the design is very similar, with the header appearing at the top of the information on screen. These large images can either be a poster for the app, movie, or album that you’re looking at, but in the case of apps, games, and movies, it can also be a trailer to show users what to expect. It puts visually appealing information front and center, which is great for users.


Below the images, the actual content and descriptions are getting some tweaks, too. The body of text that you’re used to reading over when installing a new app goes full screen, including the What’s New section, and the reviews section at the bottom is seeing a splash of color to make things a little more interesting. Below that, the content interaction section is a little different, with the Wishlist, Share, and Google+ buttons sitting below the reviews with newer icons.


Overall, everything looks like a very positive change, especially if you’re a fan of Google’s new Material Design. Although these images are pre-release leaks and might still change, I’d say we have a pretty good chance of seeing most of the overhaul make its way into the Play Store by the end of the year.
