Indeed - it’s the icons on my home screen (and the rest of the pages)

And thanks for the pointer to your launcher but there’s something unusual with the device I have along with the OS (I think it’s OxygenOS 14) - your launcher (eg) can’t be installed or used as such and I have to start with an apk (that eventually appears in a window where you can select that collection and also select one of the icons inside)

Thanks but alas - the icon packs generated with this app don’t work with the Oneplus 12 (the launcher isn’t supported)

That would be phenomenal… but… those are not around? I think?

The things I’ve found are :

1. https://github.com/materialos/android-icon-pack?tab=readme-ov-file - this is an ‘open source’ icon pack but I need to figure out how I can use this as a base to start out… Especially as they also mention that they’ve been fixing the theming of (eg) VLC > might come in handy to wrap my head around this whole icon customization thing
2. https://rootjunky.com/creating-first-android-icon-pack/ - outdated and the template isn’t available anymore

And from this technical geek who likes other tech things and fancy UI’s : I did understand what you mean :-) And thanks, hope that too but I’m in no hurry and glad I’ve switched - never expected Android to be this phenomenal :-)

Thanks Cris :-) I appreciate you taking the time to reply anyway… (even though you state you’re not that familiar with it) But yeah, there are apps on Android that do this (I think it’s called Icon Studio 2?) but these don’t work on my Oneplus 12 launcher. At least : the apk is generated but the program says that my launcher isn’t supported… But besides that : using an app on my phone to create about a hundred icons is… cumbersome. And I would like to prefer to do this somewhat faster on my Windows machine and learn something new while doing it :-) It’s also easier (I think) to update it for future installations of new apps…

And that live wallpaers and widgets : that’s something for later on :-) I am rather happy with the default launcher currently (have tried Nova and read up on the drama behind it so I’m currently avoiding it - also because I don’t like it as much currently) and I’m a simple man : changing my icons to something I like and I’m also a happy man :-)
