I made a small tool for KDE Plasma (and other freedesktop desktops) that lets you easily customize single app icons:

  • Use your own images or library
  • Copy icon from another app
  • Pick one icon from any installed theme (without switching global theme)
  • Built-in pixel editor to create your own
  • Batch apply, undo, overrides, missing icons overview
  • Import image to turn it into an icon

Completely user-level, safe, and reversible. No manual .desktop editing.

AUR: kappicon or kappicon-git

    without root

    That’s a bit superfluous, no? If any menu/launcher editor needs root, then they do it wrong.

    Edit: oh, for Mac?

      Mentioning ‘no root’ keeps it simple and welcoming for beginners while still addressing the concern. And no, this is not for Mac.
