I'm really excited to announce that the new version of Google+ for Android is available today! We worked closely with the Android team as they developed Android 4.0 (aka Ice Cream Sandwich, http://goo.gl/UpUom), so you'll see the same attention to beauty and simplicity in our new design.Anyone running Froyo and higher can use the new Google+ app, so feel free to visit Android Market, and download this Halloween treat:

I really like the way the notifications look now.
The whole app looks so much nicer, though getting used to the Honeycomb/Ice Cream Sandwich-style navigation is still a bit awkward as a long-time Android user
Yeah, it took me awhile to get used to it on the tablet.
I still get lost in the new Market app on my G2, I guess as more apps move towards Action Bars it will be easier to drop the menu button habit. Also, I can't believe you still can't +1 a comment in the Android app!
Looks like the widget is gone. Although, I never use widgets.
I’m gutted that the in app video player has disappeared… Some integration with youtube (which is the same player as was used before I think) is an absolute must. I’m always watching videos through Google+ and now it just takes me to a browser which doesn’t let me watch the video…
sad face.
