How to change app icons on any Android phone

App icons on stock Android cannot be changed directly, requiring third-party tools and icon packs for customization. To change app icons on an Android phone, users need a shortcut maker app or a third-party app launcher, along with an icon pack. To change icons individually, users can use a third-party launcher like Nova Launcher. The process involves installing the icon pack, setting up the launcher, long-pressing the app icon, selecting the pencil icon, choosing the icon pack, and selecting the desired icon. To change all app icons with an icon pack, users can install Nova Launcher, long-press a blank area on the home screen, go to Settings, navigate to Look & feel, tap Icon style, select Icon theme, and choose the icon pack. Some icon packs allow direct application if compatible with the device or launcher. With Android 12's Material You, users can theme icons based on their wallpaper by enabling the Themed icons option in the Wallpapers and style section. Samsung users can acquire icon packs through the Samsung Galaxy Theme Store by selecting the Themes option, browsing for icon packs, and applying them. However, these packs may not theme every icon in the app drawer. Good Lock's Theme Park extension allows for more customization by creating personalized icon packs. Users can download Good Lock and Theme Park, select Create New in the Icon tab, choose icon shapes and colors, and apply the new icon pack. Certain applications, like Textra and Pulse SMS, allow users to change the app icon natively. While some tools enable renaming apps, system-wide renaming is not possible without root access.

The FPS genre is addicted to sprinting and clambering, but Halo just proved we’re better off without them

Halo Infinite remains active in 2025, with new content from Halo Studios, including battle passes, weapons, and community-driven map packs. A recent event celebrating Halo 3 features the return of iconic armor sets and remakes of eleven classic maps in a special playlist. The new mode eliminates sprinting and clambering, reintroduces player collision, and enhances jump height, fostering a slower, more strategic gameplay experience. Players must master movement without the automatic ledge-catching feature, rediscovering techniques like crouch-jumping. The game starts with an SMG, emphasizing strategic depth and encouraging players to reconsider their weapon choices. This shift raises questions about the franchise's direction and highlights the potential benefits of returning to classic mechanics.

Minecraft Trading Card Boxes With Exclusive Inserts Are Up For Grabs At Amazon

Panini's 2024 Minecraft Trading Card products are in high demand, with many retailers sold out or limiting sales. Amazon has restocked two primary Minecraft card boxes: Blaster Boxes and Mega Boxes. The Blaster Box contains six booster packs (36 cards total) and features exclusive Cubic Parallel cards, while the Mega Box includes 12 booster packs with a higher likelihood of obtaining numbered cards. The complete set has 221 base cards, including 25 rare inserts for Minecraft's 15th anniversary. Availability at major retailers like GameStop and Walmart is limited, but local card shops may still have stock. Panini's offerings are strictly for collecting, not a trading card game. The recent interest may be linked to the success of the Minecraft film adaptation.
