It's simple: the new icons are all the same. The old icons are way more recognisable. You can have them back.

The amount of times I've 'lost' my gmail tab by not recognising the new logo in my ocean of open tabs 🙈

@ejsnowdon yep, I don't even mind the new icons that much, but it's a usability problem!

@ejsnowdon @iranthi_gomes same! I also don't mind the new icons - I just keep losing track of my tabs (maybe I should learn to close some....)

@ejsnowdon @iranthi_gomes maybe we can even improve it! (instead of restore). I could add the option to use even more visible icons. Example: a red circle instead of Gmail.

@ejsnowdon Oh my God YES. I keep losing my gmail & calendar tabs at the moment. Very bad (multicolor) design.

By the way, I intend to improve this extension again! 💪 Is there something you would like in the extension, but isn't there yet?

@claudio_postinghel @diegobuenopm Oh, I had missed it! Thanks so much for the feedback!

@claudio_postinghel Maybe adding our own icons? Instead of restoring the old icons, it would be interesting to tweak the new ones. I _almost_ like them.

@claudio_postinghel @marcio_duarte I found a great designer on Twitter who created a great alternative icon pack! I will offer him a collaboration. Also, you're right, I could allow the user to upload their own icons!

I don't need it in the browser. I want to replace the icons on android.

Nicely thought! I would have preferred something more "cunning" than a setInterval, though. ;)
