First off thank you to everyone in advance.

Just today my phone started showing the App (Show all apps) screen background turned all white and the icon for it has turned inverted in its colouring. Background on the 'Google' page appears to be monocolour almost.

Happened during use, I have tried powering on and off the device to no avail. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Screenshots of what is happened listed below

I noticed this on my N5 today too.

The app drawer and folders now have a white background, the app drawer button is the Lollipop version, and the closed folder icons are stacked on top of each other in a vertical line instead of diagonal.

My phone is still on 4.4.4 and the Google Now Launcher hasn't been updated since August 2014.

I wonder if this is something they've been able to do via Google Play Services. The Google app updated today, but I didn't see these changes apply immediately after it had installed.
