So I’m opening this discussion on to talk about making Makeroid more Material Design. Please give suggestions about your opinions, maybe bugs about Material Design components and etc.
Since Makeroid is a Material Design based builder, I wanted to help to improve this. Also, since this discussion is for everybody I’m also going to give suggestions please say what you think about these.
A suggestion of mine: Is the logo going to change? With Google’s font maybe? (Product Sans)
I prepared some examples below:
These look more “Material Design”
What you guys thinking?

@Ben Glad you liked it.
If you have any suggestions, you can tell so I can edit it. I’m very good at designing by the way .
The reason I’m suggesting to change the logo is this one is so “oldish”. I liked the gear idea so I implemented to the new logo too.
The logo should represent Material Design as this system is based on Material Design. Right?

Thanks for the suggestions @TurboProgramming .
We’ll surely look into it.

Current one is already with Google fonts
It has a base with ‘Black Ops One’ (search on fonts.google.com ), then I edited then the O and made the ‘Makeroid’ font. And finally, I converted it to a vector and edit it with colors frame by frame
BTW, isn’t your O the Google Admin logo?

By Google’s font I mean “Product Sans”, the Google logo and the product font.
Yep, that’s the Google Admin Logo

Product Sans isn’t open source and isn’t actually allowed to be used publicly, especially commercially.

Hmm,
I’m going to search for a fancy font that is not complicated. A bit more “simple”, “material”.

We are going to use the Roboto font

That’s a good choice is the gear icon going to be used for the “o”?

I am not sure, but I think @vishwasadiga will keep the gear icon

Hopefully, because like it’s something iconic for Makeroid
