In 2014, alongside the release of Android 5.0 Lollipop, Google unveiled their new design language, Material Design. Holo was refined over the Android 4.x years, with each major iteration bringing a new, fresh update to the style (most notably, Android 4.4 KitKat ditched the blue highlights in exchange for white, a sign of things to come for Android’s color scheme). The first, Holo, was released with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (which itself was a refinement of the Tron-esque, tablet-exclusive Android 3.0 Honeycomb). But Android has grown into its own with two distinct flavors of visual design. Early versions of the operating system were critiqued for their visual design and lack of quality apps, with iOS often being considered the older, better-looking sibling. Android has come a long way since it first launch on the market nearly a decade ago.
