How to change the square icon on Anroid 8.0 Oreo for Nexus devices

Although Nexus devices are the first devices on the list (after Pixel) get an Android Oreo update, but its fun soon dissipates by the fact that some Pixel features are not for Nexus. Many people feel uncomfortable about this but can do nothing other than find a solution to restore those features. One of the most interesting things about Nexus users with this latest update is that they are still stuck in square icons. Because the Pixel launcher application is only for Pixel devices, there is no way to get gorgeous circle icons.

  1. Instructions for changing application icons on Android with Awesome Icons application

Fortunately, you can install a custom APK file of Pixel launcher to get most of its features like circle icons, notification dots and all other kinds of tools. Even this APK file can be installed on Marshmallow devices and higher, allowing you to get these features even if you own a second device that has not been updated to Android Oreo.

1. Just go to this link and download the APK file shown as in the image and install it. Then set it to the default launcher.
