(even on iOS 18, where it’s super out of place) @avakining@hachyderm.io @overcastfm@mastodon.social I know this is super obnoxious to say but the current thick-outline-style icon looks so out of place on iOS 26 that I feel like removing it from my Home Screen :)

Open post Billrey @billrey@graphics.social · 11mo ago Replying to @overcastfm@mastodon.social @billrey@graphics.social @avakining@hachyderm.io It indeed does use Icon Composer, and every layer is rendered with the glass effect — it's just subtle. I chose not to make the glass icon look radically different, since it has looked approximately like this for a decade and people really like it. @overcastfm@mastodon.social @avakining@hachyderm.io fair enough - but currently it doesn’t follow Apple’s app icon recommendations. Right now the current icon looks out of place in both iOS 18 and also on iOS 26 https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/app-icons Btw I’m happy to help with the icon for free :) Apple Developer Documentation App icons | Apple Developer Documentation A unique, memorable icon expresses your app’s or game’s purpose and personality and helps people recognize it at a glance.
