It’s been an exciting – and busy – few months here on the OneDrive Team. We’ve been rolling out lots of important design updates to folks using our Android, Windows Phone, and iOS apps. The first major design update came earlier this year on the Windows Phone app. And if you’re an Android OneDrive user – you’ll have noticed our completely redesigned app for Android that we released a few months back. Next, came our wearable work on iWatch and Android Wear. Then, just a few days ago, we released a major update to the way we represent files and folders in our iOS app.
We really hope you’ve enjoyed all the updates but, today is equally as special. Today, we are pleased to release our completely re-designed, responsive web experience.
More than just a new coat of paint
When we began design work on the new web experience we could have just updated some colors, adjusted a few font sizes, and called it a day, but we knew that wouldn’t be enough. In order to achieve a truly cohesive web experience across the breadth of devices people use to access OneDrive we had to start from scratch. And, nothing is more fundamental to any design than the visual grid, color palette, and typography.
