iOS Firefox icon change in most recent update?

Just looking for information about how to change the background color of the icon that the developers apparently decided to change on a whim with no way that I can find in the app to revert the change? It just stands out like a sore thumb on my Home Screen bar at the bottom. I know this may not feel like a major change but going from a darker muted palette to bright white stands out immediately, and I don’t like it. The Reddit app does allow you to change the icon for that app. Any plans to allow the same for Firefox on iPhone?

Seriously, why randomly make these kinds of unilateral decisions for all users with no announcement or recourse. Feels forced and unnecessary. Why would I want a white icon background if I’m using dark mode on literally everything else?

Agreed! It is bad enough that having never used this platform/website before I felt the need to create an account and come post this thats how mind boggling this decision is.

No kidding… I like dark mode for everything and this thing is like a flashlight now

Here here! I don’t like the change and I don’t like that I cannot change it.

It’s maddening, I am so with you. Just give us the option to use either! Seriously considering switching to duckduckgo’s browser as my default, since it has an icon option with a dark background.

Hi! I really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. The icon update was made to ensure consistency and improve adaptability across different system themes, especially after iOS 18.

In the next release, Fx 136, we’ve fixed a minor issue with tinted mode, where only the white icon was displaying. Also, I understand that some users prefer the previous look, and we’re actively listening to all the feedback we’ve received. To address this, we’ll be introducing a new feature soon that lets you choose your icon. We're aiming to have this in 136.1. I will keep you posted.

Please keep sharing your thoughts!
Thanks
