Seems like an appropriate thing to post here.

I get unsolicited options from bystanders about this all the time. Dude, why are you trying to look at my phone screen anyway?

What a duality, It’s both messy and organized, minimalistic and cluttered, black and white, I love it and hate it.

Looks nice and clean.

I personally need logo colors to quickly find an app, but I'd never tell a rando what to do with their own damn phone lol.

Seems uptight. Staged. Unlived in. Needs 40 thousand unread emails and a bunch of other ignored notifications. That'd be believable.

I mean, it's not my style but you do you.

This is the benefit of android and other more open OS'

Rock it!

Why do you choose to have no color? It's like if a person who has two functional hands decide he was only gonna use one of them for a task that objectively would be done faster and better using two.

Its clean, but these app drawers are unintuitive to me. I have Niagara and I love having just an alphabetical list.

How does one get this? Asking for a friend.

I use Nova Launcher for my home screen. The icon pack is "Lines Free," by Nate Wren Design.

Back in the bad old days of Windows 95 I used to make my own icons for everything using Microangelo but these days I can't be bothered. The same author has various other icon packs, some of them minimalist, some of them not.

It reminds me of Astroids. I want it, lol

It's cause you use moon+ \hj

Moon+ is awful in it's design. It's TRYING to be MD3, but it's just trash.

P.S.: Looks cool and clean but not my style

Be super keen when app makers actually be bothered to implement Android adaptive icons (so that when you enable themes their icons automatically adapt)

It's pretty dogshit that these apps aren't forced to provide an adaptive icon considering I'm sure most of them just refuse because of "our brand identity" 😒

How did you do that? Do I need a Pixel?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

If you long press on the home screen and select "wallpapers and style" you should get this UI where you can select themed icons. From memory it's an Android 13 specific option.
