REQUEST: App Icon Selector
I posted this during a beta, but thought I would post again for other users to comment on. iOS has the ability for app developers to create alternate app icons. For example, my "MLB" app allows me to set the app icon to the Seattle Mariners.
This may be a fun little feature for the L10 mobile apps... However, I have a real reason to want the feature. Since Macs are transitioning to "Apple Silicon" (i.e. M1 and M2 chips), iOS apps are able to be installed on newer Macs. I have done so and really enjoy running the mobile app on my Mac when I am writing outside of Logos. I can also imagine students pulling up resources via the mobile app along side a word processor. My issue is that the mobile app icon and the desktop icon are <nearly> identical. I am thinking of installing the Verbum app instead to avoid this problem, but changing the app icon would be a better solution.
Another user also has indicated an interest in this due to vision issues. Alternative icons may be helpful for accessibility reasons.
I have included two links below. One is an apple developer site which explains this. The other is a web log with examples from other developers.
I know that creating the Logos takes time and money... It would be cool if FL developed a number of icons (i.e. a simple "bible" icon), but in the meantime it would be good if we could simply select from the app icons already created (i.e. Logos, Faithlife, Verbum, etc.).

BUMP
I really want to install the Logos mobile app on my MacBook Air... but am not simply because the icons between desktop and mobile are nearly identical. I had previously installed the Verbum app... but don't want to do that since I prefer the Logos app.
