Google goes for the glitter with disco-ball icons: ‘Are y’all sure you still want this?’
So bad, it’s good? Google on Friday joined in the disco ball icon fun taking place on home screens everywhere. After Spotify’s temporary new disco ball app icon, released to celebrate the company’s 20th anniversary, drew extensive online backlash (and a bit of praise for those who like a little kitsch!), Google decided to get in on the joke and rolled out a custom set of Android app icons sporting a similar disco ball theme. On X, Android ecosystem head Sameer Samat posted, “Your wish is our command. Disco icons available on Pixel as of today…Are y’all sure you still want this?” Your wish is our command. Disco icons available on Pixel as of today. … Are y'all sure you still want this ?? 😅@DurvidImel @RaceJohnson https://t.co/S9dwLZRtHl pic.twitter.com/nvevL7fTSb— Sameer Samat (@ssamat) May 22, 2026المصدر: TechCrunch | Source: TechCrunch
