It pains me to agree, since the community put so much effort into these, and that’s truly appreciated, but I don’t feel like any of them live up to Voyager’s aesthetic. They’re all kinda amateurish. Hopefully the devs do another one of these contests in time.

I also think the contest guidelines are partly to blame. The whole, “avoid the corporate vector look, look at these super detailed illustrations” thing is horrendous advice. It basically translates to, “avoid doing what the most talented app icon designers in the world do.”
Yes, the icon should be fun and stand out. Yes, the Facebook “f” is boring as fuck. But some of the greatest app icons are extremely simple, and there are reasons for that. Fine details don’t display well in the actual contexts that icons are used in; they make the design seem muddy and confused. People resonate with clear design that knows its purpose.

I prefer the current icon to any of these new ones.
Looks like I can never delete the current one from my homescreen for any reason 😅
I agree. All 3 options look outdated and are not good icons for a Home Screen. Icons need to be simple and clean, these are all too busy
I honestly can’t stand the cutesy eyes. I wish there was some more diversity in the options, something more abstract in there would be nice.
Oh well, through the magic of Android I can pick a different one to use from the thread.
