<h3>New Icons</h3>

<p> Additionally, the colours of the desktop are tweaked to the brighter colour palette to match the new icons. </p>
<h3>App Menus deprecated</h3>
<p>In GNOME 3. the App Menu is the dropdown that appeared in the top left of the panel next to the Activities hotspot. As of GNOME 3.32, this UI feature is deprecated, and all core GNOME default applications now no longer have App Menus. </p>
<h3>Fractional Scaling</h3>
<p>Previously, the GNOME UI could only scale in increments of 1. With the wide range of different DPI screens available this may cause a strange middle ground on some displays, where the UI is either too small or too large when scaled. GNOME 3.32 provides experimental support for scaling the UI by more granular amounts.</p>
<h3>Better emoji input</h3>
<p>GNOME 3.32 features an updated on-screen keyboard implementation. Most notably, this includes the ability to easily “type” emoji with the on-screen keyboard</p>

<h3>Improved App permissions control</h3>
<p>The new “Application Permissions” in the main settings dialog allows users to view and change permissions for applications.</p>
