As we announced in Android Help, Gmail has started receiving updates to improve its user interface, including the intuitive use of color tags. Okay, the same situation will happen with the application today. Google Calendar was developed by Shanjing City.
Therefore, Google seems to want a more intuitive navigation through their creations, including different color codes to distinguish events that have occurred, such as the new Play Store interface. In this way, to know if someone you know has a birthday, simply check if the color assigned to that event appears on the corresponding date.
But the news here is not over, as Google Calendar has also "suffered" from redesigning its user interface, as shown in the picture below. Chrome's new immersive interface now fully adopts the Holo architecture in the existing version, so it can perfectly adapt to Jelly Bean and retain some residual buttons (especially notifications) from Gingerbread (2.3) version. In addition, the display of dates and clocks is also more concise and comfortable. In addition, the new update also makes creating and editing events faster and more convenient.
