The company also updated its famed typeface Roboto, allowing developers to use one optimized font across a number of different platforms.Īs part of Material, there are several animations for developers to use that include sleek visual feedback to freshen up the experience when users are navigating Android apps.
This version of Android launched with groundbreaking features, including an all-new “Material Design” language, enhancements to notifications, performance improvements, and more. Google called this release the biggest in Android history at the time, with over 5,000 completely new APIs. Android Lollipop was the 5.0 release of Google’s mobile operating system.
