Hey guys!

Material Design is starting to make its rounds with many Android apps, but there are still so many that haven't made the change. Which apps do you want to see upgraded to have the Material Design structure for the user interface?

One person already asked me about Facebook, and when it might change, which I don't know anything about yet, but I did find a really cool Facebook Redesign Concept with Material Design video http://youtu.be/ULm7Gv41VaM

So, now I'm asking you! Which apps should get Material Design?

I just downloaded Inbox by Gmail and it looks great. I didn't know that was called Material Design. Amitabh Singh already included some of my favorite apps which are WhatsApp and YouTube. It'd be great if they could do it with VLC for Android too. I watch lots of movies and series while traveling in public transport and that app could use some visual improvements as well :)

Yep, WhatsApp and YouTube with Material Design would be welcome additions for sure! I have a feeling that it might take a while for WhatsApp though.

Well, I think that the actual design of Flipboard is already on Material Design.
I mean, it have changed so recently, and reminds me of Material Design, especially the app icon.

I'm waiting see:
Instagram;
Facebook (completly);
Twitter;
All the Sony native apps that are not in Material Design already;
Bank apps;
Netflix;
Skype;
Xbox 360 SmartGlass;
Ookla Speedtest;
Last.fm (this one needs a lot of attention. Never seen such a crap app for mobile. The devs should pay more attention on it).
