Update your settings here, then reload the page to see it. The new logo will be rolling out across various platforms ‘soon.’ If you want to read more about what’s new, I recommend reading Hu’s Twitter thread detailing the changes here.This content is not available due to your privacy preferences. The new icons will start to appear across your devices soon. Yes! we’re refreshing Chrome’s brand icons for the first time in 8 years. Some of you might have noticed a new icon in Chrome’s Canary update today. I mean what if the Chrome logo was actually, you know chrome? Now that’s a bright and shiny idea. That said, part of me wishes Google had gone bonkers and made an altogether new logo (Google apparently considered bigger changes but decided against them). On the whole, it’s a change that most people won’t notice, and that’s probably just fine. Meanwhile, the Mac version comes out of left field with a slightly 3D icon that somewhat matches native Apple icons. Per Hu, on Windows 11, the logo has a more graduated look to match the OS’ aesthetic.īut on Chrome OS, the colors are more solid, because that’s the way Google’s design leans these days. Google is actually making the logo subtly different for various platforms in order to better blend with their individual aesthetics. There’s a slight gradient on the colors because “placing certain shades of green and red next to each other created an unpleasant color vibration.”ĭesign is about the details, after all.The proportions are different, making the big blue ball in the middle noticeably bigger.The colors are brighter, making that fancy screen of yours pop.The icon has been simplified/flattened by removing the shadows.Here’s what’s officially changed, according to Google designer Elvin Hu.
Now’s your last chance: can you spot the differences? Instead, the new logo will probably just give some people that weird “hmm, something’s different” feeling, like when Spotify changed its shade of green and people revolted, presumably including Neil Young. Google probably doesn’t want people to panic when they suddenly can’t find their browser because of some newfangled logo. The Chrome logo is pretty iconic, and everyone knows what it is. So yeah, it’s Chrome’s first new logo in eight years, but not that much has changed. *Types away at keyboard.* Okay, that is new-chrome-logo-2022.png.įor reference, this is old-chrome-logo-2014.png:
