Microsoft announced the release of the new Fluent UI Controls for PowerApps.

The main idea of this improvement is to have a default design much closer to the modern Microsoft patterns and styles.

Here you can have a look of the current design of a bunch of controls:

45

And you can compare them with the new design:

78

With the current version, if you wanted to have this kind of result, you would have to do difficult kind of customization (For example to have a shadow on your buttons). It will be a real gain of time starting from this design.

This is a quick view of some controls that have been updated but there will be a lot more controls improvement next. You can find the list of updated controls here.
