Garish distracting colors where the old one used muted colors that were easy on the eye.

Garish distracting colors where the old one used muted colors that were easy on the eye. The new Google calendar app pushed to Android within the last few weeks is a perfect example of this. In the old one, I could easily pick out dates and items. In the new one, the colors overwhelm everything and I literally have to consciously focus my mind to "see" the data they are presenting. It's a complete FAIL, IMO. I wish there was an option to opt out of the material design version.
