(It wouldn't let me upload a bigger resolution, so here's one, without the mask)

Edit: if you’re on iOS and want to use this as the app icon for wefwef, there actually is a way to do it: link.

Wow! I want this icon. It’s absolutely perfect as I love blue. Just not sure how to reinstall on iOS to change the icon beyond the default.

I just found out that it actually is possible if you have a Mac, although a bit cumbersome.

This Post explains it:

  • Enable Web Inspector on iPhone. Settings > Safari > Advanced > Enable Web Inspector
  • Connect your phone to your mac
  • Open wefwef.app on the phone, connect to it from macos safari developer menu.
  • Change the icon urls in the inspector then install the app on the phone.

You can replace the icon url by searching for "apple-touch-icon" and changing the href property everywhere you see it to this: https://i.imgur.com/kUxXoIA.png

So change this:

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" type="image/png" sizes="180x180" href="/favicons/apple-touch-icon-180.png">

to this:

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" type="image/png" sizes="180x180" href="https://i.imgur.com/kUxXoIA.png">

And do this for all the "apple-touch-icon"s.

Or if you use Apple Configurator to push wefwef as a webclip you can easily drop in whatever icon you like.

I take it back, there’s actually an easier way and you can do it without a Mac: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/10290/

This worked! Annoying to have to setup the app each time I remake the shortcut with logins and stuff, but this was worth it!
