Change your Todoist app icon


Need Todoist to match your screen aesthetic? No problem! Here's how you can personalize the look of your Todoist app icon.  

There is no in-app way to change the Todoist app icon in your macOS app. However, the below method can be used as a workaround:

  1. Quit Todoist.
  2. Open this folder and download the icon image to your computer.
  3. Go to your macOS Applications folder.
  4. Find Todoist and right-click on it.
  5. Select Get info. This will open a Todoist info pop-up.
  6. Find the icon image you downloaded to your computer. Drag it over the current Todoist icon at the top of the pop-up.

If the drag-and-drop method doesn't work, copy and paste the icon instead:

  1. Select the downloaded icon file and press Cmd+C to copy it.
  2. In the Get Info window, click the small icon thumbnail in the top-left corner to select it.
  3. Press Cmd+V to paste the new icon.

Note

macOS may prompt for your password – this is normal. If the icon doesn't update immediately, restart your Mac to refresh the icon cache. The change can take 10–15 seconds to appear.

There's no option to change the Todoist app icon of the web app or Todoist for Windows. Sorry about that!

If you're using an older Android version, as well as a custom launcher, there's a possibility that setting a custom icon will remove it from the launcher screen; however, it will be still available in the app drawer (the list of installed apps).

If you log out, the app will switch to the default red Todoist icon. You can select a custom icon again at any time. If you ever need to clear the app data, the custom icon won’t be affected by that.
