Without the possibility to have your own icon, the “Add to Quick Access Toolbar” is rather useless. I hope that you make this enhancement!

@David
Thank you for the answer.

@Loren
Thank you but that was not quite what I meant :)

@Ming

Having a custom icon for an app is something that other people have also suggested. We are looking into it as a potential enhancement.

Mingjing-

As Dave shows in the art above, you can choose an image to represent your app when you package it. That thumbnail will display when you hover over your app.

Hi Loren, I’m wondering if there is a way to customize the icons of user-made apps? I noticed that all built-in apps have a cool icon that gives you a visual hint of what this app is about, but I didn’t find out how I can easily do this when I tried to package my own app.
