Steps to Change App Icons Using X Icon Changer
To customize your app icons with a tool like X Icon Changer, follow these steps:
- Open the Application: Launch the X Icon Changer app on your Android device.
- Select an App: Browse through the list of your installed applications within X Icon Changer and choose the specific app whose icon you wish to change.
- Choose a New Icon: Select your desired new icon. Options typically include:
- Icons from built-in icon packs within the app.
- Images from your device's gallery.
- Icons copied from other existing apps.
- Icons from personalized third-party icon packs you may have installed.
- Edit App Name (Optional): You can also choose to give the app shortcut a new name. This step is optional, and you can leave the name field blank if you prefer not to change it.
- View the New Shortcut: Once you've selected the icon and optionally edited the name, the app will create a new shortcut on your device's home screen or desktop reflecting your changes.
Note: This process typically creates a new shortcut on your home screen with the modified icon and name, rather than changing the icon of the original app in the app drawer. You can then use this new shortcut for quick access from your home screen.
