Microsoft has started rolling out a new icon for its People app on Windows 10. The new icon inspired by Fluent Design previously shipped to Windows Insiders, as did other new icons from Microsoft’s inbox apps such as Photos, Weather, Alarms & Clock and Mail and Calendar.

You can see the old and new People app icons side by side below. Just like other app icons refreshed recently, the new People app icon uses a blue background color by default, and it doesn’t respect your choice of accent color in the Windows 10 Settings app.

Microsoft isn’t done yet refreshing all of its app icons on Windows 10, and icons for Calculator, Camera, Feedback Hub, Maps, Messaging, and even the Microsoft Store will likely get a fresh coat of paint sooner or later. Do you like this new icon for the People, or did you prefer the old one? Sound off in the comments below.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
