    Personally I’m giving all of the apps that haven’t implemented a themed icon a 1 star when Android 14 launches.

    You’ve literally had a year and a half. It takes 60 seconds to do. Stop being incompetent.

      It’s not incompetence, it’s laziness if anything. They don’t care and can’t be bothered to update their app. Leaving a review and uninstalling seems like a fine approach for the dozens, maybe hundreds of people who care about this as much as you do. Don’t expect developers to care, though. This is a very minor feature request.

      Most Android version testing is done to prevent bugs. Depending on what phone the app developers use, there’s a chance they don’t even know about the themed app features.

      It doesn’t take “60 seconds to do”, though.

        It literally does take 60 seconds to do. It also is incompetence if you’re not up to date on the latest Android design guidelines.

        Android 13 has themed icons.

        Maybe developers should grow up and learn to be competent?

      A think that a lot of devs take “themed icons” as a gimmick feature on top and rather focus on app stability and other features, or they just don’t care because they don’t see it as a deal-breaker in any means.
