LinkedIn for Android has just received a major update, bringing it to version 4.0. This new update gives LinkedIn a makeover, putting Google’s Material Design guidelines front and center. After the update, users will see a sleek new interface, better animations, and more.

The design of the LinkedIn Android app isn’t the only thing that got a makeover, though. The Android application also received serious organizational changes as well as better navigation features.

Users can now swipe left and right to access their feed, profile, messages, connections, and search. The Settings option has a new home within a user’s profile tab, which now gives you full access to LinkedIn’s profile options.

The new design was much needed, as LinkedIn for Android has been stuck on the Holo/Ice Cream Sandwich design patterns for some time now. With that in mind, this new update should help users be able to navigate LinkedIn on mobile much easier now.

LinkedIn is rolling out the update in stages, so expect to see it within the next few weeks. Those that want to get an early look at it can download it from this APK mirror, courtesy of Android Police.
