Thank goodness: Google says it’s not about to reveal a Liquid Glass makeover for Android

• Android boss Sameer Samat has quashed concerns that the platform will gain an Apple-style Liquid Glass redesign.
• The denial comes after he posted a teaser video showing the Android mascot with a glass-like appearance.
• Samat said that an Apple-style overhaul was “not happening!”

Google is set to hold The Android Show event on May 12, where it’s expected to announce a raft of updates for the Android ecosystem. The company recently posted a teaser video for the event, and it got some people worried that Android could get a Liquid Glass makeover.

The 15-second teaser video, posted by Android boss Sameer Samat on Twitter, shows the Bugdroid mascot pulling a light switch. The robot then gains an opaque, glass-like appearance. Needless to say, many users in the thread have responded with concern that an Apple-style Liquid Glass overhaul is coming.
