Microsoft Office apps get a fresh new look

Technology Oct 02, 2025

Microsoft is rolling out brand-new icons for its 10 main Office apps—the first big update since 2018.
Inspired by the Fluent design system and Copilot, these icons now have softer curves and brighter gradients, making Microsoft 365 look more modern and user-friendly.

A quick look at the new icons

The sharp edges are gone—think smoother shapes and richer colors that pop.
Details are simpler (like Word's icon dropping from four bars to three), so everything's easier to spot at a glance.
Expect to see these fresh designs soon across all your devices, whether you're using Office at school, work, or just for fun.
