Material design on iOS [closed]

Question

It's a good idea to use Google Material Design on a iOS project?

I'm working on a project that works on iOS and Android, on Android we use Material Design, but when I try to make things at same way on iOS, the UX is not so good, it's just my perception or someone had the same experience before?

Answer 1

From my experience with some of Google Apps, it's perfectly possible to use material design on iOS. Actually, Material Design is not a platform specific design.

It'll "break" the Look and Feel with the rest of the system? Yes, kinda. But you definitely can do that and achieve good results and nice UX.

Some good examples are: Youtube, Hangouts, Google Maps.

And a non-Google example: Homeslice.

Thing is, you're probably going to have to develop some components/widgets to achieve that.
