Best Android Icon Packs: Includes Free Icon Pack Downloads

With the release of Android L, there are many new Android icon packs to download to get the best theme for your Android device. The great thing is that these icon packs allow you to customize the theme to the way you want it to look. Downloading the Android icon packs is very easy, but selecting the best Android icon packs is much harder.

A majority of these icon packs are available on Android Lollipop and Kitkat. You can download these Android icon packs in the Google Play store. In this review of the best icon packs for Android operating system, there are screenshots of each of the different types of themes.

The following is a list of the best Android icon packs you can download in the Google Play store:

Etched Material Design

Etched is a icon pack that if focused with a Material Design theme. This icon pack is clean, simple, and uses the traditional Android colors. It should work with almost any setup, especially muted wallpapers that need some color in their day.

There are over 400 “hand crafted” icons in the pack, icon masking, three wallpapers, and support with your favorite launchers (Nova, Apex, Holo, GO, and ADW).

The Sawyer Android icon pack has a true vintage design with its textured backplate and striping, but still remains somewhat modern with the crisp edges of its icon identifiers.

There are 755 “handmade” icons in the pack, 37 amazing wallpapers (seriously, you need these in your life), Muzei support, and should work with most of the top launchers.

Balx

Balx has a long-shadows design with great looking icons pretty. With Balx, you are getting rounded icons, bold colors, shadows, and “defined dimension” around the icon identifiers. If you are a fan of the long-shadow, this would be a great addition to your collection.

Tenuix

Tenuix focuses on an easter egg type of design for it’s Android icon pack. The designer is calling it a “delicate” palette of colors, which I agree is much lighter than the stock colors we often see. It’s kind of refreshing actually. Each icon is round, with a white border surrounding the icon design. You will see soft purples, blues, and greens, which might be a great move as many of us head into a dark and dreary Fall/Winter.

There are over 800 icons in the pack, 22 HD wallpapers, icon masking, and will work with many of your favorite launchers.
