I recall it had the mouse on it. Now I have the purple world.

      There is an icon selector in settings

      Like in apollo, we can select icons. Maybe that can be implemented in the future. :)

        Although the current icon is nice, it would be cool to have some additional icon design options in the future! Just wanted to put that out there, loving the app! ❤️

          Devs are open to good submissions. Good icons are over $1000 to commission so not a priority.

          Apollos dev paid for all those icons.

            Maybe as a community effort then. Rather than bought.

            Btw, I didn’t knew they were that expensive, for such tiny art, especially for a free non profit software.

            I’m thinking maybe the Apollo one was that expensive because it has to incentivize users to subscribe and pay?

              One of the Memmy devs actually said that was the cost when they looked into it to get good ones. Of course, Memmy doesn’t make a lot of money.

              Not sure what Apollo paid but, Apollo brought in a lot of money and could afford it. Christian must have seen the icons as a good investment.

                Ahhh that explains it. Though, forgive the impudence, but I certainly do hope that a flat planet with few circles doesn’t cost 1,000USD.

                  The cost of designs like that aren’t necessarily to do with the size of the icon, they’re to do with the expertise and years of practice a designer has to work for to be able to understand how to make an icon that looks professional, legible at a small size, works with the branding of the app/company, doesn’t come too close to other companies icons, and that the user is happy to have on their Home Screen.

                  It also has to look alright at larger sizes in certain cases.

                  The planet icon probably didn’t cost $1000, and you can tell and that’s why you’re posting about it.

                  Unfortunately, the annoying part about designing app icons is that when it’s really good, the user won’t even notice it, because it’s designed to not stand out from your Home Screen and become an eyesore.

                  It’s a tricky situation 😂 and the reason I did years of design school but never actually ended up becoming a professional

              This was my thinking too, if something were to be made by the community that was of sufficient quality, they would be welcome contributions!
