Spice up your smartphone or tablet with the best icon packs for Android
App icons are different shapes, sizes, and color schemes and follow different design guidelines. Samsung's icons look different than Google's icons, look different from Microsoft's icons, look different from every other developer's icons. Adaptive icons have sought to bring some order to this chaos, but with little luck. Thankfully, icon packs are here to pick up the slack. Icon packs are plentiful, colorful, and they come in every style under the sun. I love Whicons, but all of these packs are fantastic.
Goes with everything
Whicons
If you only download one icon pack, make it Whicons! This free icon pack is simple, its icons are easy to identify, and Whicons goes with just about every dark and vivid wallpaper you can imagine.
Little white lines
Lines
Outline packs may take different thicknesses and sizes, but Lines remains my favorite. It's been around for a really, really long time — just look at that Settings icon! — but Lines always comes through when I need a wireframe pack.
Glassy gleam
Emptos
This glassy icon pack is as rare as it is beautiful. Transparent squircles give a look of consistency to your app drawer and home screen, but the white logo shapes within are still instantly identifiable.
BYOP: Build your own pack
Icon Pack Studio
If no icon pack can quite suit your tastes, don't give up hope — just make an icon pack yourself! Icon Pack Studio lets you pick the colors, textures, styles, stencils, and more and covers every app on your phone no matter how obscure.
Teardrops of darkness
Oscuro
Hex black teardrop icons cut through bright and dim wallpapers alike, but the shaded stencil logos within them allow some wallpaper details to show through, as seen on the YouTube and AC logos.
Little black icon pack
Zwart
Zwart is the yin to Whicon's yang, its evil twin, and deliciously dark standout. When light icons can't keep their definition against vivid wallpapers, Zwart stands bold and firm.
Sophisticated cutouts
Nimbbi
This pack turns its simple monochromatic logos and thin black border into an elegant affair. Like onyx cuff links buttoning up your home screen, Nimbbi offers a sharp contrast to vast landscapes and geometric wallpapers.
Matte black everything
Matte Black Icon Pack
There's almost nothing better than having as many matte black things as you can. Whether it's a tablet, phone, or anything else, and with the Matte Black Icon Pack, you can add another layer of awesome to your life. There are more than 4,000 icons to choose from along with over 40 similarly-themed wallpapers.
Shadows and circles
Lux Dark
Circular icon packs are some of the most popular, but Lux Dark shines a diamond in the rough. The bright, gradient-steeped color accents blend well with dark and colorful themes quite well.
Keep it mellow
Mellow Dark
This pack tries to perfectly balance shadow and vivid color in flat Material icons that use repeating shape styles to evoke consistency in an app that isn't completely forced into one particular shape.
Can't fight the moonlight
Ineclectic
Inelectic tries to add as much depth to its Material icons; icons are steeped largely in shadowed grays with delicately chosen color pops. This pack features a lot of shadowing, shading, and angled light-play. And there are even some "special" icons included for those who like having some custom and unique icon options.
Docked and locked
Ombre
Ombre is one of my favorite "shaped" icon packs. The bottom dock/bar is mostly plain, but for fitting icons, it transforms! The colors here are vivid enough to work with dark themes, even with the dark icon accents.
Color on the lines
Outline Icons
Outline goes beyond the monotone of simple white to bring bright, bold colors to its neon-reminiscent icons. Being a technicolor pack, it's a little easier to lose some of the more muted detail shades in some wallpapers, but this pack is a gem that shines in dark wallpapers and app drawers.
Pixel perfect
Pireo
Pireo keeps the layered look of the original 2016 Google Pixel's round icons alive and strong several years later. It favors white for its icon backgrounds a lot, but the small shadow keeps them distinguishable, even on pure white wallpapers.
Flat and round
Elun
Elun also emulates some of the 2016 Pixel's style, but this pack is flatter, slicker, and far, far more colorful. Soft grays and vivid accent colors help it avoid an abundance of white, so icons like YouTube and the Dialer stand out more.
Material magic
Urmun
Urmun is a pack built upon Material Design, one that emphasizes bold logos and sharp color palettes. Shadows add depth to this diversely-shaped, 4,300+ icon-sporting pack, and details are emphasized expertly.
Sweet and colorful
CandyCons
Taking more of a shine to bright sugary colors and simple shapes, CandyCons is a sweet icon pack to keep around. Plentiful, colorful alternate icons make for great theming around the holidays.
Hip to be square
Krix
These ever-so-slightly-rounded square icons offer a flat look and a wide color array. Based on Xiaomi's MIUI, this pack has over 3,000 icons and a uniquely blended style.
Touch of TouchWiz
ONE UI Icon Pack
A lot of icon packs emulate the Samsung Experience/TouchWiz look, but none do it with quite the style of the ONE UI Icon Pack. This wireframe pack's more than willing to bulk up with original logos when the outline look doesn't work, and I'm grateful for their discretion there.
Basic beauty
Minimalist
Out of the darkness and into the light, Minimalist tends to favor square icons with its sun-faded palette and flat, minimal feel. While these icons are beautiful, it can take a moment to tell which apps are which.
Go retro
Retrorika
Retrorika has grown in downloads and icons for years while maintaining a sepia-stained look that skews the palette in new and often fun ways. You'll get that old-timey feel across all of your icons, and the icon pack includes a few matching wallpapers to complete the ensemble.
Magic rainbow rave
Unicorn
Unicorn very much matches the food craze that engulfed everything from cupcakes to donuts to Starbucks and beyond. Vivid pinks and purples contrast more muted blues and greens for a pack that's rave-ready, day or night.
All that glitters
Golden Icons
This beveled beauty of a pack is the little sister of Whicons and Zwart. While it lacks a golden mask to keep unthemed icons truly consistent, there are enough alternate icons to keep your app drawer golden.
Colorful gradients
Gateau
Gateau was initially made available for those in the jailbreak scene on iOS but was ported to Android. There are not too many icons as of yet, but we are hoping that the developer continues expanding the library. And the best part is that Gateau looks great on just about any wallpaper you want to use.
Color in the lines
Crayon Icon Pack
Get the crayons out and start to color with the Crayon Icon Pack. There are almost 4,500 icons included, along with an integrated masking system, so there is some uniformity to your home screen setup even if there's not a dedicated icon. The pastel colors look great, especially if these are set to a pastel-themed wallpaper.
Vibrantly unique
ENIX
There's just something about having vibrant icons that can really brighten your day. ENIX aims to do just that with this "shapeless" and unique set of icons. All of your standard launchers are supported, along with some that you wouldn't expect like LG Home and others.
Shapeless dual-tone
Duo Icon Pack
Duo Icon Pack is another option with a shapeless-design in mind, but these have a bit more vibrancy. Duo works with both light or dark wallpapers, so you can fit these into any theme you are trying to create. And with the included Dashboard, you'll be to send over any icon requests that you may need.
Fill the gaps
Adapticons
If you only need to plug one or two holes in your app drawer — or simply want to make an icon pack where every single icon can be individually customized, colored, and shaped — Adapticons is your app! Just be prepared; this can take a little while to do one by one.
Any shape you want
Fluidity
Fluidity doesn't try to do too much in terms of the "theme" of the icons, as that's not the primary focus. Instead, the icon pack sports a few different icon shapes that adapt to every icon that is installed on your device. All of your icons will be uniform in shape, and some may have some unique designs.
Minimal glyphs
Worst: Icon pack
This icon pack is new to the scene, as there are just over 600 icons available right now. But the developer is super-active and is pushing updates to the Worst: Icon Pack on a regular basis. And if you have a popular app installed, the chances are that you'll be able to take advantage of some of the alternative icons that are included.
Pick your poison
There are a lot of icon packs, and while I love and enjoy keeping a wide array of icon packs at my disposal, I do find myself coming back to Whicons — it really does go with everything! When Whicons doesn't quite fit a theme, Ombre usually does.
As for Icon Pack Studio, it gives me icons that are perfectly color-matched to my theme's palette and covers every app in my drawer, popular or not. Then there are the likes of Fluidity, which adapts to whatever shaped icon you prefer to have on your home screen, and even includes Dynamic Clocks, so you keep everything matched up.
