Android's new flatter design is taking over the Play Store app soon

Google may have already given Android's Play Store a big makeoverthis summer, but it's not done yet -- there's another revamp coming this year.Android Policehas postedshots of a pre-release Play Store 5.0 update that's very clearly guided by Google's Material Designconcept. While it's not quite as dramatic an overhaul as what we saw a few months ago, it's still a pretty noticeable change. Swaths of bright, solid color are everywhere, and there's even more of an emphasis on title pictures. You should get some extra function to go with this form, too; code buried in the update hints that you'll get to restore apps on a per-device basis, making it much easier to recreate your setup from an old phone. It's not certain just when the new Play Store will go live, but it's reasonable to presume that you'll see it around the same time as the similarly-styled Android Lupdate.
