Google has just started rolling out a new version of the Play Store with even more Material Design bits and animations. The first noticeable change is a new logo for the Play Store app with a flatter design.
The update is pretty colorful in nature and assign a specific bright and bold color to each and every category in Google Play. Thankfully, Google has also fixed the stupid behavior of the What’s New section with this update.
Now, tapping on the ‘Read More’ button will not throw the What’s New section at the bottom. It has also highlighted the What’s New section with a different background color making it easier to distinguish from the app description.
Play Store v5.0.31
There are quite a lot of other minor UI tweaks here and there and new animations in this update to make the Play Store adhere to the Material Design guidelines.
As always, the Play Store app on your Android device will be automatically updated to the latest version (5.0.31) but you can always sideload the APK manually from here and skip the queue.
