Google Introduces mandatory Holo Theme to access Android market for Android 4.0


We all know that Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich is awesome OS in Android device. It has brought a bunch of improvements and updates to the Tablet. Google has just announced that to access the Android Market on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich OS) any device must have "Holo" theme. This Holo theme is called Ice Cream Sandwich's native theme.

Google's default theme is essentially a set of User Interface widget and design elements that developer can utilize in developing applications. Means that Now Google has opened the option to any third party developer  to design widgets and applications with native theme.


An Android Frame work designer said that, "We've made the inclusion of the unmodified Holo theme family a compatibility requirement for device running Android 4.0 and forward".

So after this, updates to applications and software skin are easier to roll out.
