Android? Which launcher? Depending on the launcher, you can change icons to image of your choice
iOS, there's a hacky way of doing it with Siri Shortcuts that I completely forgot and I can't find it since r/Shortcuts was made private lol.
This?
Exactly what I had in mind!
I’m pretty sure that doesn’t work for web apps though, since they’re not actual apps the "open app" shortcut doesn’t work. You can use "open url", but that opens it in the browser.
I don’t know if there can even be such a thing as different icons for web apps on iOS.
Some time ago you could actually change the icon to whatever you wanted, but that’s no longer possible afaik.
Mate can you stop reading my mind, God's sake this is scary. The SECOND TIME we are posting and commenting the EXACT same thing minutes of each other.
😂
As of now, there is no way for pwas to rebrand themselves on IOS. The only way is to reinstall - and lose local data.
I mean all the data is on my profile so I'm willing to reinstall. What's the method exactly?
You just remove and add to home again? This is for when the app developer changes the icon or name. In that case the only way to get the updated branding is to reinstall.

Annnd... It doesn't detect webapps :(
How dare you not to use android? Open source or nothing.... just kidding^^ so the only alternative is an app i guess? at least a few are pretty nice and coming to ios too. I hope you guys get what you want^^
I've tried them all, but only WefWef sat well with me. Since the whole revolution came about because of the Apollo app, and WefWef is its successor UI and everything. WefWef, or whatever name they go with, will be my eternal home. Matter fact, to me, Reddit was Apollo, and Apollo was Reddit; similarly, WefWef is the only way I'll be using Lemmy.
I'm on oneUI. How do you change the icon of a PWA?
Pixel launcher users out of luck I guess.
