Icon Packs & Themes To Customize Your Phone [andriod Users] by JayKayMaybachz(m): 10:02am On Aug 21, 2016
[b]Believe it or not, the ability to personalise mobile devices is incredibly important to users.

Even the least tech-savvy will sooner or later want to change the default wallpaper on their phones. If you take a step towards more advanced customization, you’ll learn it’s possible to completely transform your Android device with various launchers and widgets, cool fonts, lockscreen replacement apps, and icons.

With so many great Android icon packs out there it can be difficult to choose the right one for your phone. That’s why we’ve decided to help you save time – and money – by presenting some of the best free icon sets currently available from the Play Store.

Most of the icon packs listed here require you to install a launcher first. After that you can install the icon pack itself, and apply it through the launcher’s Settings dialog. Some icon packs come with their own setup utility, or a separate app that you can use to preview, update, and modify the icons. In both cases, the installation process is simple and you can change the default Android icons in just a few taps. The best part is that your device doesn’t have to be rooted in order to use these icon packs.[/b]

[size=14pt]BLEACH ICONS[/size]



With sharp symbols on muted, soft-colored backgrounds, Bleach is a perfect match for pastel wallpapers and retro-style themes. It comes with nearly 1500 icons and an option to request more. Bleach also offers 20 wallpapers that emphasize the beauty of this icon pack.

Supported launchers: Apex Launcher, Smart Launcher, Nova Launcher, Go, ADW, Aviate, CyanogenMod Theme.

Free On Playstore


[size=14pt]ADASTRA[/size]



Adastra is a colorful and detailed icon pack with 1180 icons in HD quality. The icons are optimized for XXXHDPI screens and you won’t notice any loss in quality when they’re resized. Adastra even works with older Android versions (from Gingerbread onwards) and offers a handful of wallpapers – what’s there not to like?

Supported launchers: Apex Launcher, Go, Nova Launcher, Smart Launcher, Holo, Action, Aviate, ADW

Developer: Tomy Cadus

Price: Free on Google Play Store

[size=14pt]QUADRA[/size]



Quadra is a bright and cheerful icon pack with flat-style, square icons that will grab your attention thanks to the colored border on each icon. It’s still in beta, which is why there are “only” 580 icons, but you’re welcome to send your icon requests and suggestions to the developer. Quadra is optimized for devices running Android 5 (Lollipop) and comes with its own dashboard app.

Supported launchers: Action Launcher, Apex Launcher, Nova Launcher, ADW, Atom, Holo, Smart Launcher and more, with support for Unicon (requires root)

Developer: Ryconography

Price: Free on Google Play

[size=14pt]VOXEL[/size]



Shadows combined with bright colors make Voxel icons stand out from the rest. This set gives you more than 1900 square icons to arrange on your home screen and achieve that neat tiled look. In case an app icon is missing from the set, Voxel will mask it to make it fit into the theme. Last but not least, Voxel comes with a dozen wallpapers and an icon request tool for your convenience.

Supported launchers: Apex Launcher, Nova Launcher, Smart Launcher, ADW, Go, Holo, Aviate, Atom, Action Launcher, KitKat Launcher, and a few more

Developer: Benas Dzimidas

Price: Free on Google Play Store


[size=14pt]VNYL[/size]



Whether you’re a music lover or a fan of all things vintage, VNYL will bring a smile to your face. This icon set is special because its round icons are designed to resemble vinyl records. VNYL contains more than 2400 icons with custom icons for activities.

Supported launchers: ADW, Atom, Aviate, Apex Launcher, Epic launcher, Holo, KitKat Launcher, Nova Launcher, Smart Launcher, CyanogenMod Theme Engine, Solo Launcher and more, with support for Unicon

Developer: starkeDEV

[size=14pt]GRIM ICONS[/size]



You might think Glim is yet another Material Design-inspired icon set, and I understand that a lot of people dislike the current trend of “flatness”. But do you really want to miss out on more than 1500 free icons and a bunch of high-quality wallpapers? For a small fee, you can get access to 2000 alternative icons – this means you can swap any icon with one of several alternatives for a unique customization experience. Not trying out Glim would really be a mistake.

Supported launchers: Apex Launcher, Go, Holo, KitKat Launcher, Nova Launcher, Trebuchet, ADW, Atom, Epic Launcher, CyanogenMod Theme Engine and more, plus it works with Unicon

Developer: Maximilian Keppeler

Price: Free and paid ($1.57) on Google Play Store



[size=14pt]SILHOUETTE[/size]



Silhouette is an artistic icon pack that makes clever use of shadows, outlines, and color to give an impression of, well, a silhouette of an icon. With 800 icons included, this pack is among the smaller ones on the list, but it does offer icon masking for icons that are yet to be added. Silhouette also comes with its own dashboard app from which you can request new icons and manage existing ones.

Supported launchers: Use the Silhouette dashboard app to apply the icon pack

Developer: Onyxdev

Price: Free on Google Play Store

[size=14pt]CANDYCONS[/size]



Most icon packs tend to be uniform and consistent when it comes to shapes and lines. CandyCons is different. It’s a fun set with 690 carefully crafted icons that come in various shapes and colors, giving your Android device a creative and exciting vibe. Some icons have alternatives, and switching them is as easy as simply holding down an icon and choosing a replacement from the popup dialog.

Supported launchers: ADW, Apex Launcher, Go, Holo, Epic Launcher, KitKat Launcher, Aviate, Atom, CyanogenMod Theme Engine and more (total of 27 launchers are supported according to official description)

Developer: Vukašin Anđelković

Price: Free on Google Play Store



[size=14pt]WHICONS[/size]✔ ✔ ✔ *My Best Icon Pack*



This elegant monochrome icon pack is my favorite from this list. Whicons looks amazing with dark themes and backgrounds, and its 2732 icons should cover most of the apps you have installed. In case they don’t, Whicons offers an icon request option in its Dashboard app, where you can also download Whicons wallpapers, preview all icons, and set the icon pack as the default.

Supported launchers: Apex Launcher, Nova Launcher, Smart, Launcher, ADW, Go, Aviate, Action, Solo, KitKat Launcher, Epic Launcher, and more

Developer: TomVer

Price: Free on Google Play Store



[size=14pt]GEL ICONS[/size]


Another classy, white icon pack. Gel icons work well both with dark and light wallpapers thanks to the transparent icon background. The icons are round, simple, and great if you want to channel your inner minimalist onto your Android home screen. There are 1000 icons in the pack with more to come.

Supported launchers: Nova Launcher, Apex Launcher, Aviate, Action Launcher, Holo, Smart Launcher, ADW, LG stock launcher, CyanogenMod Theme Engine, and more

Developer: Fraom

Price: Free on Google Play Store


[size=14pt]LEAF ICONS[/size]



This small icon pack is obviously different from anything you’ve seen so far. The leaf shape will give your home screen a quirky, original touch. Leaf Icons currently offers more than 200 icons, which does sound modest, but the developers promise frequent updates.

Supported launchers: Nova Launcher, Apex Launcher, ADW, Go, Action Launcher, Holo

Developer: Leaf Coders
