Hi everyone,
As part of our further integration with Google, we’re adopting Material design to the apps you’re creating.
This will allow your apps to take advantage of Material’s robust design framework.
Starting Oct 6th, you’ll start seeing some app UI refinements over the next several weeks, such as:
- Responsive layouts for card and deck views (more to come)
- Usability improvements for mobile touch targets
- Increased legibility for events in calendar views
- Typographic hierarchy and contrast
- Layout and aesthetic updates to views
- A new card view choice
This shouldn’t affect any functionality in your apps, but if you do experience any bugs, please reach out as always…

Looking forward to it!
Hope the component like “buttons” will be able to looking like ones in Material design as well.
Currently, we only have rounded / circle button only, hope to see options to change on demand of app users.

I’ve posted an update of what was deployed already to some of you.
[AppSheet apps are getting a material upgrade](https://community.appsheet.com/t/appsheet-apps-are-getting-a-material-upgrade/32961) Feature Release Notes
Hi everyone, As mentioned previously there, we’re adopting Material design and this is starting to get reflected in your apps. As mentioned by Mike, these changes are UI refinements and should not change how your apps behave. If you see a different behavior, please contact us preferably at support@appsheet.com. We’ve already rolled out some of the changes (see screenshots below) to some of you for these views: Card View Map View Onboarding View About View These are all the views that have b…

By the way, these “Feature Release Notes” should be easier to find:
[Is there a chronological record of (major) platform changes](https://community.appsheet.com/t/is-there-a-chronological-record-of-major-platform-changes/33475/3) Questions
It seems to me that “What’s New” (at the top of the community screen) should be made into a dropdown menu with links to both “Announcements” and “Feature Release Notes”. Ironically, “What’s New” only links to one category of posts, whereas the other headings have drop-down menus that link to more than one. If “Feature Release Notes” had been in “What’s New,” I wouldn’t have needed to write this excessively long post. [Screen Shot 2020-11-01 at 12.13.40]
I hope the category can be added to “What’s New.”

Hi @Mike_Moss! Hi @praveen!
Please check out the following in relation to AppSheet’s adoption of material design:
[Capitalization in material design](https://community.appsheet.com/t/capitalization-in-material-design/38576) Questions
I understand that AppSheet is in the process of trying to improve its compliance with Google’s “material design” standards. In that regard, I’d like to point out a minor issue and ask if it has been considered. First, here’s the relevant information regarding capitalization: [Screen Shot 2021-01-23 at 18.27.31] [Screen Shot 2021-01-23 at 18.27.41] [Screen Shot 2021-01-23 at 18.27.46] And here’s what I have in my app: [Screen Shot 2021-01-23 at 18.28.24] In the text that I can control …
[Is this Ok (I mean "OK")?](https://community.appsheet.com/t/is-this-ok-i-mean-ok/38574) Questions
I just noticed this “OK” button in the “About” menu of my app. “Ok” looks odd to me. Shouldn’t it be “OK”? I think we all have the same “Ok” buttons on our apps. If the default is not changed (or even if it is), it would be nice if we could change the appearance or wording with the localize feature (see UX menu). [Screen Shot 2021-01-23 at 17.54.12]
