It has a complete robot physique in a rounded and 3D avatar. The new changes to the Android are part of the dynamic evolution of the operating system.

The Android OS has been a hotbed of Google’s innovation and experimentation. Google’s confirmation of the Bugroid comes after several months of having a sneak peek of the refreshed Android logo. The Bugroid started off as a full-bodied logo, then got a slight color change, and then a significant redesign in 2019. The 2019 redesign of the Bugroid’s head omitted its body but the new logo returns to a full robot physique.

The Bugroid logo draws inspiration from Material design to complement the Google brand palette, according to Google. The robot’s full-body design is focused on transitioning between digital and real-life environments seamlessly. The Bugroid will appear in more places than the Android logo.. It will specifically appear where Android connects with people, cultural moments, and communities. It is dynamic and takes different skins like the platform.

The new Google wordmark was also confirmed by the tech giant. Google is tweaking the Android moniker with some capitalizations and enhancements. The previous “android” wordmark will transform to a capitalized A and rounding of the n and r. This delivers a new wordmark complementary to the Google logo. The representation will also be simpler, going forward. The dessert codenames will be omitted for easier understanding globally. The dessert nicknames are still retained internally.
