5 Ways That Android Is Trying To Break The Mobile UI Paradigm
Android's design chief asks why we're still designing smartphone applications as if they were desktop software.

When designers create applications for smartphones, they often hark back to principles inherited from desktop software. After all, they’re all computers, right? Android UX design chief Matias Duarte thinks it’s time to jettison that idea. The technology available in the average smartphone today is vastly more powerful than the desktop computer of 30 years ago, when those standards were first created. So it’s time to rethink the paradigms and invent new ones for today’s technology and devices. "I want people to stop thinking of an application as a bucket of buttons and think of it instead as a canvas," he says.
