Meta description tag

Question

Can someone tell me why google is not showing my description?Below is the meta tag from my header.That's not the best description but you got the idea.

<meta name="Description" content="Best color Palettes and Fonts to improve the look and feel of your application."/>

Instead of this description it shows all the text from the page as a description.Don't tell me it takes time for Google to update.My description is there for nearly 2 months.

Answer 1

Because Google's algorithms have determined that showing the text from the page is better for Google's users than the meta description you have provided.

Answer 2

Description is only used if Google deems it's a better text than what it can find on the page in connection with the users search.
