Google Alerts is now with Material design

I feel like it was a rushed job - absolutely no attention to the motion work that is most of what Material design is about: <a href="http://paulstamatiou.com/design-provide-meaning-with-motion/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;paulstamatiou.com&#x2F;design-provide-meaning-with-motion&#x2F;</a>

Looks like the ability to get alerts via an RSS feed has gone.. I&#x27;ve gotten less and less email alerts over time I honestly thought this would be something Google had on the deadpool list

Have they also made the alerts work reliably?

Eh, I don&#x27;t think so -- and no PR related to it mentions Material design principles. The only thing about it that looks &quot;material&quot;-ish is a single-column paper card sort of thing and the bold color at the top. There are no animations, no reactive layouts, no shadows.

My issue with Google Alerts is they seem to only send me a few hits once in a while and when I actually search for my keyword phrase (which is long and has unicode chars in it), I find more and newer exact hits.
