How to detect change in view in appium(java) :android

I am automating test cases for android app using Appium (java). I am stuck on an interesting scenario:

My test case is to change the view of products by clicking on an icon.
That's done.
Now I need to verify that view has been changed or not, here is where the actual problem comes.
In both the cases the parent class is android.widget.GridView and subclass is android.widget.RelativeLayout
- only the the way they appear on screen is changed (First they appeared in list type and later in grid type).
I am using UIAutomator for UI elements.
How to detect this change?
Any help/ suggestion /work around would be greatful
