App rejected because of icons, any advice?

Hi,

I am the developer of the Link2Home Homey app. Today, I got a message that the app was rejected because the icons weren’t recognizable.

However, I don’t really understand why. The icon was copied from the Link2Home website also, so it is the actual brand logo.

Which other icon should I use for this app? Should I just use the smart plug’s driver icon instead? I don’t understand why the current icon was rejected.

Strange indeed. And how does your icon differ from e.g. the following one, which also has a white fill? :thinking:

I can just tell - try also “homey app review” … :wink:

I wonder if it’s not AI error during automated review, or after all, maybe human/real reviewer, did mistake

It might mean that there’s a technical issue with the icon. For instance, when it has a background color instead of a transparent background.

Easiest fix: Create an issue here with your sample image and have Athom create the svg file for you.

It’s approved now. For anyone looking for the Link2Home app:
