Brutalist App Redesigns

I like the aesthetic and I think that it ought to go beyond visual ux. Give me apps with brutal feature sets: just what is needed for full functionality (I think the gmail app is a pretty good example of a utilitarian creature set, could be slimmed down a little though).<p>Let&#x27;s lose extras like the camera on the Facebook and Spotify apps, the assurances from google maps that you are on the fastest route, and so on. And get rid of animated transitions or explicitly show a progress indicator.
