About Aycon (Icon & Shortcut Editor)
With Aycon you can create custom shortcuts for apps, regular shortcuts and app shortcuts for your home screen. Don’t like the icon of your favorite app or it doesn’t fit to your current wallpaper? Use Aycon to create a custom shortcut on your home screen with a different icon. App shortcuts which have been introduced with the latest Android 7.1 release are also supported.
Main Use Cases:
• Use custom icons for your favorite apps and shortcuts
• Add app-shortcuts (Introduced with Android 7.1) to your home screen
• Create a clean home screen by creating icon-only shortcuts without a label
Main Features:
• Ad-free
• Fast and easy to use
• Modern material design
• Supports most icon Icon Packs available on the Play Store
• Compatible with most available launcher
✔Shortcuts to launch a regular App
There are great apps but some of them have not-so great icons or icons that simply won’t fit to your home screen style. Simply choose a different icon from your one of the thousand icon packs that are available on the Play Store.
✔ Shortcuts
Creating shortcuts is one of the most overlooked features on Android and we think that’s also due to the fact that most apps don’t provide a way to change the appearance of a shortcut. Create a shortcut to make a direct call to your best friend and change the icon of it using Aycon. You can even use a photo from your collection.
✔ App-Shortcuts
App shortcuts can be used to launch a specific action inside a app. Typical examples are: Launch the ‘create a new event’ screen of your calendar or start tracking a new activity with your favorite fitness app.Please note that Aycon only supports ‘static shortcuts’ because ‘Dynamic shortcuts’ are only accessible by launcher apps running on Android 7.1
✔Round Icon
With the launch of the Google Pixel developers can now provide a optional round icon variant but most. With Aycon you can select the round icon variant (if available) and you can also choose the regular icon if your launcher only uses the round icons and you’re not a big fan of them.
✔Custom Label
Use a custom label for every shortcut created with Aycon or use a empty string to create a icon-only home screen.
✔Custom Icons
Aycon let’s you choose between regular icon, round icon, icons from installed icon packs, images from your device or other image apps. App shortcuts also offer a variant with or without a icon-badge (regular or round variant).

But not all icons were the same size. All the icons I used icons were 144x144 but when I applied it, some of them became smaller.

Concept is good, but OnePlus Launcher isn't supported.... So that's a no-go for me

This wonderful little app gives me so many more options for icons on my home screen, including icons for the various functions of apps that the developer doesn't provide. It makes it easy to choose from the various icons in my icon packs, without me having to page through or search each icon pack app: it seems to know which icons to suggest.

It wasn't clear (until I tried) that the shortcut creator was a creator of shortcuts, and not an editor of universal icons of a shortcut type.

Please allow to select a custom icon from the list of icons in an icon pack too, just in case an alternative needs to be chosen :)

Too funny, was skeptical at first. Using stock OnePlus you can actually change the icon on your homescreen. Reminds me of the Xposed xSuite module. Press on the icon image and wait for alt icons to pop up and select.

I appreciate the developer's swift response & update to make Aycon work on the OnePlus One. However, when it comes to customizing the icon, it seems that not all icon themes are made available (I suspect only those with themed icons for the app) & certainly not all the icons that a theme has. In contrast, my Nova Launcher allows me to choose any icon from any theme installed, as well as any picture from the Gallery. So, Aycon is useless if you use Nova, sorry...

Setting icons from icon packs doesn't work. You can select icon packs in the media browser that pops up, but when you choose an icon in the pack, Aycon just shows the default icon instead.

App shortcuts are comically broken. I got "permission denied", "app not installed" or just the wrong action. Maybe the next release will be better.
