Last year, the Firefox team set out to test something fans requested: choosing a custom app icon. The experiment was simple. Offer a small set of options and see how people use them.

I couldn't find where to change the icon.

[–] Albbi@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Settings -> Customize -> App Icon was the first option on Android.

Tried that. It's not there for me. Maybe it's not rolling out at the same time.

Oh that's interesting. About a week or maybe 2 ago I got a pretty big Firefox mobile update. The entire UI was overhauled. Have you experienced that yet?

[–] astro_ray@piefed.social 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The last big change I saw was the cartoon fox on the tracking protection page, and some other changes there. Don't see anything other than that. It also says the last update was from 24th November. So looks like I am not on v146 yet.

I'm on 145 still. Maybe they are doing an A/B rollout for the UI. I'm not a big fan of all changes, but overall the aesthetic is nice.

[–] astro_ray@piefed.social 2 points 1 month ago

I think that might be the case here.

Are you using Fennec? I don't have it there either. But it is there in Ironfox.

[–] astro_ray@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

I installed firefox just to check out that new icon. It's not on there for me. I actually use fennec for my regular use and would love something like that on fennec tbh. I love colourful cartoony funky icons. I wish more apps had icons like that.
