According to reports, Google will change the look of Android’s navigation keys, with the release of Android N later this later this year.
The navigation keys were changed last time and they were aesthetically improved with Android Lollipop, but now which gave us keys that resembles a triangle, a circle, and a square. Well, Google is planning a new redesign for them.
The new keys will have colours, the multi-coloured home button will even animate when long-pressed, causing the colours to expand in. All the keys are also opaque. We can expect this new look to arrive perhaps on the next Nexus devices.
Google’s Nexus is Google’s flagship phones that run the latest version of Android, but it’s no no news on if all devices getting Android N will get the new look for navigation keys, and it’s also not confirmed if the new keys will ever see the light of day. If they are exclusive to the latest Nexus devices, however, Google will essentially be giving those devices unique software features.
