Macos icons

[Vlad Gaevsky]

Hi, I found this link http://go/pwa-mac-icons with the instruction on how to update some of Google's own PWA icons on macos to match os style. I wanted to ask, is there any plans to implement it wothout any workarounds?

Hi!

Applications that are installable should be specifying 'maskable' icons in their manifest. So all of these products (cider, gmail, etc) should be updated to specify 'maskable' icons.See https://web.dev/articles/maskable-icon

There is a recent project for installations for apps that do not have manifests (we call them DIY or manual apps), where we now do a heuristic to mask them here, see here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11-oinF7skII3xsl4434ixUuzE2EGANq-9QVpJEI-OWo/edit?usp=sharing

Hopefully that is helpful - if you are working on a product here, please add maskable icons!
