Did they? MD2 and MD3 look very different from Apple’s design languages
Comment on Apple announces iOS 26 with Liquid Glass redesign

Google themselves don’t really follow material all that closely over their entire product line.
Android 6 was basically the peak of the UI, IMO, the icons were very consistent and nice early material.
In later versions the shrink the icons and stuffed them into circles and started using a horrible color scheme, then they killed blobmoji and started outright copying Apple’s hideous emojis with that awful gradient and pseudo-skeumorphic visuals.

The blob emojis were one of their best features, that’s so true! I kid you not, every single time I’ve used Slack for work, for every single company which used it, someone had already uploaded the blobs! I really didn’t understand that move, the current Smile emoji looks psychotic.
