The Local Guides program has a new design as the team shared previously this week, we can already see the new branding here on Connect, yesterday I was checking the Maps app and I noticed the new design had rolled out to my profile, you can read more about the redesign here: A fresh new look for Local Guides
Look at this nice dynamic star (2x speed) for Level 10 profiles ![]()

Before and after Screenshots
To show you the difference, I took “Before and after” screenshots. I personally like how it looks in dark mode.
But for those that prefer the classic white background here it is also in light mode:
Be patient, it may take a fews days to rollout on every profile, share in the comments your new profile design !
Also, don’t forget to cast your vote for our new community logo, there are two options but I personally like option B
(it already has an emoji!) It is symmetrical and it looks like a group of 5 Local Guides raising their arms to complete the shape of the star, if you think about it from an Olympics point of view they consider 5 continents full of Local Guides: Africa, Americas, Asia,Europe and Oceania (Are there any LGs in Antarctica?)
Just imagine getting a group of 5 LG and with a selfie stick or a drone and taking a photo that looks like the community logo, it’s Brilliant!
So, Citizens of the Local Guides Nation, I am once again humbly asking for your support: let option B resurge in the polls and cast a historic vote for Option B, for a future that is symmetrical, star-shaped and come on, it looks like it’s already there in our profiles in the app. You can change your vote to make history!
Be sure to cast your vote by April 18: Vote for the new look of the Local Guides community-owned logo!
*Disclaimer: In the spirit of democracy, every Local Guide has the free will to vot for their favourite option, even if you vote wrongly by not choosing option B, all jokes aside, vote for the one you like the most! ![]()
Bye!
