Galaxy Themes

If you have a Samsung device, this option will be the best as you don’t have to download anything. 

Here are the steps you need to follow carefully to change the color of your icons:

  1. Go to your phone’s settings. Open them and type “themes” in the search line and press “enter”. It might take some time to find the result, up to 15 seconds. 
  2. When the search is over, you will see only one option called “Themes”. Tap on this block and you will open Galaxy Themes.

Now you will see thousands of icon packs. If your aim is to find free packs, go to this category. Now you can study each of the icons and decide if you want to download the pack. All of them have ratings and reviews, which you can study before downloading them.

If you have already chosen an icon, tap on the “apply” button and wait for the changes to be applied. Then close the app and check the result!

However, sometimes you can face one difficulty. What if there is no icon you are looking for? In this case, you can go for an icon request. How to do it? Just scroll down.

You will see a list of apps installed on your phone. Choose the one requiring an icon and then send it!

There are two ways of getting your icon. The first one is Premium Request. You will have to pay for it. However, in this case, the request will be satisfied much faster. 

The second option is a Regular Icon Request. It is free to use 10 times meaning you can request 10 icons. This type of request might take longer. We can’t say for sure how long it will take because it depends on a huge number of factors.
