Make Niagara button icon shape match the selected app icon shape

Is your feature request related to a problem?

No.

Describe the solution you'd like

Not sure if this should be a "design bug", or just a feature request... Niagara allows me to choose circle, squircle, or rounded square for my app icons "style" (it's shape), and they all indeed change - except the Niagara button. It looks weird that the Niagara button is always a circle, when I select a rounded square (for example) for all my app icons. I think it would be a more consistent design that one's selction of icon style applied to the Niagara button in addition to all the other app icons. If I choose circle, squircle, or rounded square for my icons, the Niagara button should match.

Personally, I also think it would look better if the size of the Niagara button matched the size of the other app icons too, however this is less important.

Thanks for requesting this.

It would make sense to have the Niagara button automatically change shape depending on the selected icon shape. Are you primarily referring to when you are using Anycons or just any third-party icon pack with adaptive shapes?

While allowing the user to select whichever shape they want is a bit much customization, the option to have it adapt to the icon shape or not adapt is worth discussing.

Hi! I'm attaching a screenshot to highlight what I mean, where the icons (in this case, using the custom "Pix Material You Light/Dark" icon pack) are all small and square, where the Niagara icon is big and circular. I think it would look much more coherent if they matched.

You can recreate this without a custom icon pack by going to Niagara settings > Look > App icons > and choose "Default", where you then have the standard Android icon style choices of "Circle", "Squircle" or "Rounded square". The same 3 choices are ALSO presented to you if you choose Niagara's Marble or Material app icons.

I feel that if you make a choice of "Squircle" or "Rounded square", the Niagara button would look better also as a squircle or rounded square, vs. always being a circle.

Also, I think it would look better if the size of the Niagara button matched all the other icons on the screen. So, Going to Niagara settings > Look > App icon size, whatever size you choose gets applied to the Niagara button too, for consistency.

Thank you for the screenshot. That makes things even clearer.

We will discuss this internally :)
