Theming and icons
Change icon packs, themed icons, colors, and fonts.
Lawnchair lets you customize icons, colors, and fonts. Use these settings to match your home screen to your style.
Customize icons
Lawnchair supports two icon systems that can work together.
Icon packs
Icon packs provide a set of custom, full-color designs for your app icons.
What does Tint with accent color do?
When turned on, Lawnchair applies your current accent color to all icons.
This creates a more uniform look, but it can override an icon pack's intended colors.
Themed icons
Themed icons are a modern Android feature that provides single-color, monochrome versions of icons. Lawnchair recolors them to match your wallpaper and theme.
This feature works on top of your selected icon pack.
How to turn on themed icons
Navigate to Home settings > General.
Tap Icon style.
On the screen that appears, tap Themed icon source.
Tap Themed icons and choose between the following:
Home screen: Applies themed icons only to your home screen
Home screen and app drawer: Applies themed icons to both home screen and app drawer
Select your desired themed icon source from the list.
For the best themed icon experience, make sure you have a compatible icon source.
Lawnicons is built for Lawnchair and works as both an icon pack and a themed icon source. See Lawnicons for details.
Per-icon customization
You can also change the icon for a specific app on the home screen or in the app drawer.
Important: This feature only works for app icons. It does not support shortcuts or work profile apps.
To change one icon:
Long-press the app icon you want to change.
Tap Customize (or the pencil icon).
Tap the existing icon to open the icon editor.
Choose an icon from your installed icon packs.
Customize colors and theme
Lawnchair also lets you adjust its color scheme.
Adjusting accent color source
This setting controls how Lawnchair picks its main colors.
Go to Home settings > General.
Tap Accent color.
Choose one of these options:
System: Uses the colors provided by your device.
Wallpaper: Uses the colors sampled from your wallpaper.
If you are using a live wallpaper, Lawnchair may not sample colors reliably.
Custom: Lets you choose a preset or set a custom color.
Adjusting color style
If you use a non-system accent color, you can also change how Lawnchair applies it.
Go to Home settings > General.
Make sure Accent color is not set to System.
Tap Color style.
Choose a style from the list.
