What is/are your question(s)?

Hello!! It is the first time I work with your application and I see the screenshots on the main website with the name of the app and its icon next to it, but I only get the texts of the apps, not the icons. How i can put the icon with text?

Thank you very much for this simple and beautiful app!!!

Edit: i forget put the title, excuseme!

Settings but what section?homescreen, behavior, apperance.. ?? i dont see nothing with name "icons" thanks

HeCodes2Much commented 2 months ago

Go into settings and select a custom font then you can paste icons from nerdfont when you rename an app.

xisnamh commented 2 months ago

Please, any detailed steps to do that? I only see documentation for windows/linux, thanks

If you don't know how to paste text on a phone then maybe look it up on YouTube on how to copy and paste text on android.

OK!!! solved! but maybe you should explain in your readme the two steps you have to do to add the icons, because it is very confusing.

Steps: -go to https://www.nerdfonts.com/cheat-sheet and search for the application you want to put the icon -Hover over the icon and select "copy" -in mlauncher settings, select a font other than "system" -open the menu of all your installed applications -press on the application you want to put the icon -select rename -paste copied icon

wiki/Icons if you check the wiki like you accepted when you made this issue you would of seen this.

xisnamh commented 2 months ago

Yes, I just saw it and I just saw people's other posts related to icons. Seriously, if you put some steps similar to the ones I wrote in the main readme and the wiki, people would understand it super quickly, it's just a tip, thank you very much, great app! I love it!

sorry but i am not about to add stuff that can be found clearly on the wiki into the home readme that's the whole point of a wiki i'm sure you would understand this. I don't mind people asking me if they try to do things themselves first.
