[Android][Other] Improve the Spotify icon for rounded icons

Hello! The android Spotify icon recently got updated with a black border. For anyone with a dark or black wallpaper, the icon now appears to be smaller than all the other icons on the phone because the black blends in the the backdrops, making it look really off-putting and out of place.

 

Looked a lot nicer when the logo took up the whole space! Not sure if iPhone users would have the same issue, but it would make sense they do.

 

HopwHopef this can be easily adjusted!

I just registered to say that it is hideous.

Totally agree the new icon looks too small now against a dark background, which alot of people will have because OLED. Please fix this so Spotify doesn't look like it has an unnecessarily small icon.

I thought my icon set was **bleep**, but turns out it is an official icon. Why? I don't see how that border improves anything. Even on lighter themes.

Easy solution: icon packs

An icon pack isn't an option for those who don't want to run a launcher. I like stock launcher on my Google Pixel.

I've seen some bad decisions from Spotify on Android over the last few years, like the removal of the filter/search playlist feature (now hidden within a menu) BUT this one really bugs me, it just looks awful. I remember when Spotify had attention to every little detail.

This is flat out hideous. I am seriously considering canceling my premium and moving to another streaming service because of this.

Hey @user-removed, how about you look up the definition of "duplicate" before you change my post that came before this post? Thanks so much in advance. 🙂
