Manual Download

First Launch

On the first launch, IconChanger will prompt you to complete a one-time permission setup. This is required for the app to change application icons.

Click the setup button and enter your administrator password. IconChanger will automatically configure the necessary permissions (a sudoers rule for the helper script).

Changing Your First Icon

1. Select an application from the sidebar.
2. Browse icons from macOSicons.com or choose a local image file.
3. Click on an icon to apply it.

That's it! The app icon will be changed immediately.
